WEBVTT

00:00:47.020 --> 00:00:49.039
I love the fact that the suplex in the beginning

00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:52.020
is me suplexing a very chubby JP O 'Reilly through

00:00:52.020 --> 00:00:55.960
a door. Now I'm just slightly chubby JP O 'Reilly.

00:00:56.259 --> 00:00:59.679
Yeah, yeah. I know. I'm trying to get there myself.

00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:03.119
Cat already broke shit. We've been on for three

00:01:03.119 --> 00:01:04.620
seconds. He was already breaking stuff over there.

00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:08.280
I guess I'll do the intro anyways. Welcome to

00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:12.939
the First Session Podcast. I'm Big Cat. A new

00:01:12.939 --> 00:01:16.859
mic, sadly. Welcome, welcome, welcome to another

00:01:16.859 --> 00:01:19.560
episode of Per Sessions Wrestling Podcast. I'm

00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:22.180
your host, the main of main, Big Cat Tyler Adams,

00:01:22.299 --> 00:01:24.719
where you can catch us live every Friday night

00:01:24.719 --> 00:01:26.799
p .m. Eastern Standard Time. Of course, you can't

00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.060
catch us live. You can always catch us on every

00:01:29.060 --> 00:01:31.459
audio platform, but you don't get the whole show.

00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:32.959
If you want the whole show, you're going to have

00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:36.200
to watch it live on YouTube. And tonight, I am

00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:38.959
joined by Dylan Nix of Nautical Nightmare and,

00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:41.060
of course, the hardcore maniac J .P. O 'Reilly.

00:01:42.780 --> 00:01:46.000
JP, we missed you last week. Yeah, I know. It's

00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:49.719
been a rough couple weeks. Yeah. You don't have

00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:53.939
to go into detail, but we wanted to hear the

00:01:53.939 --> 00:02:00.819
story of you having to drive Matt Riddle. God,

00:02:01.099 --> 00:02:04.120
I drove Riddle and Calisto. Yeah, how did that

00:02:04.120 --> 00:02:10.479
go? It was fun. It was an interesting ride. I

00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:13.659
picked them up at the Bangor International Airport,

00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:17.659
and they were coming from one of the... I think

00:02:17.659 --> 00:02:21.159
Riddle was coming from Florida, and Calisto was

00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:23.699
coming out of North Carolina, I'm pretty sure.

00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:26.939
And they both were on the same flight, so they

00:02:26.939 --> 00:02:31.099
both got there at the same time. And I had Calisto's

00:02:31.099 --> 00:02:32.780
number so he could talk to me as he was getting

00:02:32.780 --> 00:02:36.530
out of the airport. We get into... come out of

00:02:36.530 --> 00:02:39.590
the airport, get in the car. As soon as Matt

00:02:39.590 --> 00:02:43.050
comes out of the door, it was a very windy day

00:02:43.050 --> 00:02:46.569
that day, so the wind was blustering right through

00:02:46.569 --> 00:02:50.409
the terminal. And he walks out through the sliding

00:02:50.409 --> 00:02:52.530
door, and you see, I didn't realize how tall

00:02:52.530 --> 00:02:55.090
he was. He's taller than me. And he just walks

00:02:55.090 --> 00:02:58.629
out, and he goes, he's like 100, 200 feet down

00:02:58.629 --> 00:03:06.360
the aisle, and he goes, what the fuck? and flip

00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:11.159
-flops with no socks on. I'm like, I'm having

00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:13.120
flashbacks to picking up Cruel in the middle

00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:16.139
of February and he was wearing short shorts.

00:03:16.460 --> 00:03:19.020
And I was like, what the fuck is happening? And

00:03:19.020 --> 00:03:23.159
then Kalisto bundled up in a snowsuit -like jacket

00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:28.800
and I was like, this man came prepared. Kalisto

00:03:28.800 --> 00:03:30.360
totally looked at the weather and went, I'm going

00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:32.539
to wear it. It's going to be what? Breaking news.

00:03:33.439 --> 00:03:38.030
LA Night Mystery opponent. Is Matt Cardona, but

00:03:38.030 --> 00:03:41.370
it's not Matt Cardona. Wait, is he Zack Ryder?

00:03:43.150 --> 00:03:52.250
Is it Zack Ryder? It's Woo Woo Woo. Oh my god,

00:03:52.409 --> 00:03:56.629
that is awesome. Please tell me about the radio.

00:03:58.210 --> 00:04:01.150
It looks like it if it's the same background.

00:04:04.330 --> 00:04:07.169
You can see the glasses and stuff in the background.

00:04:07.669 --> 00:04:11.389
Dude, he's typing Ryder on him. That's awesome.

00:04:12.090 --> 00:04:15.969
Dude, that is awesome. And he's doing the pose

00:04:15.969 --> 00:04:19.649
and all. That was a great show tonight, guys.

00:04:19.730 --> 00:04:22.810
We'll catch you guys later. We're going to go

00:04:22.810 --> 00:04:25.050
watch SmackDown. We're going to go watch SmackDown.

00:04:25.350 --> 00:04:30.670
There was LA and Zack Ryder together. So too

00:04:30.670 --> 00:04:33.389
similar. It's weird. well it's like i was saying

00:04:33.389 --> 00:04:35.370
last week like i don't watch her on smackdown

00:04:35.370 --> 00:04:38.389
anymore i did it's like eh there's so much i

00:04:38.389 --> 00:04:42.589
watch all the good stuff i watch monday night

00:04:42.589 --> 00:04:47.129
just because i for the longest for like six years

00:04:47.129 --> 00:04:49.850
could not watch live wrestling because of my

00:04:49.850 --> 00:04:52.990
work schedule working at the tv station so as

00:04:52.990 --> 00:04:54.750
of this year i'm like oh my god i can actually

00:04:54.750 --> 00:04:59.170
sit down and watch ron as it's live. And now

00:04:59.170 --> 00:05:01.110
it's Netflix, so it's just more convenient being

00:05:01.110 --> 00:05:02.569
on the app and whatever. I don't have to worry

00:05:02.569 --> 00:05:05.509
about cable or whatever. And it's the only show

00:05:05.509 --> 00:05:07.750
that I consistently watch every Monday that I've

00:05:07.750 --> 00:05:11.089
had since February. So it's been kind of nice

00:05:11.089 --> 00:05:13.889
to be able to just sit down and be able to watch

00:05:13.889 --> 00:05:16.470
it live instead of watching reactions or watching

00:05:16.470 --> 00:05:19.649
quick clips. And then the pay -per -views and

00:05:19.649 --> 00:05:21.209
everything like that, I'll be able to watch on

00:05:21.209 --> 00:05:24.750
the weekends because I'm already home. Do you

00:05:24.750 --> 00:05:26.610
think they're going to switch it from Netflix

00:05:26.610 --> 00:05:33.430
to ESPN? Not until the Netflix deal is over because

00:05:33.430 --> 00:05:39.730
Netflix just started in January. After their

00:05:39.730 --> 00:05:42.829
contract is up. It depends on how well they do

00:05:42.829 --> 00:05:46.850
with that ESPN deal. I'm going to be the asshole.

00:05:47.069 --> 00:05:49.680
I want everything back on ESPN. I want everything

00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:51.879
back on Star Wars. I want everything back on

00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:53.779
USA, and I want everything back on freaking the

00:05:53.779 --> 00:05:56.120
WWE Network. I want to pay $9 .99 a month to

00:05:56.120 --> 00:06:00.680
be able to watch all my stuff. It's $1 ,000 a

00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:03.279
month to buy everything for WWE. Fuck that shit.

00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:05.319
Well, that's another thing. I don't understand

00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:07.699
why they didn't do that to begin with. They didn't

00:06:07.699 --> 00:06:09.420
just do their own network and say, if you want

00:06:09.420 --> 00:06:11.139
to watch wrestling, you've got to pay $10 or

00:06:11.139 --> 00:06:14.600
$20 a month to get both Raw and SmackDown and

00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:18.750
NXT only on our network. She's been fine. I'm

00:06:18.750 --> 00:06:20.610
sorry. I'm still caught up right now on the fact

00:06:20.610 --> 00:06:23.389
that Cardona came out of Zack Ryder because the

00:06:23.389 --> 00:06:27.149
fact that he literally went on interviews and

00:06:27.149 --> 00:06:29.610
said, oh, Zack Ryder's dead, and then comes out

00:06:29.610 --> 00:06:32.329
and he basically sold out on this shit. No, because

00:06:32.329 --> 00:06:34.910
he's actually said, and I've heard him do interviews,

00:06:35.209 --> 00:06:39.110
every Royal Rumble season, he has two pairs of

00:06:39.110 --> 00:06:41.810
tights made. He has a Matt Cardona set and a

00:06:41.810 --> 00:06:44.470
Zack Ryder set. Literally, he says he's always

00:06:44.470 --> 00:06:46.660
ready to go. If they give him a call and they're

00:06:46.660 --> 00:06:48.100
like, yo, we want Zack Ryder for this Rumble,

00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:50.779
he's like, cool. He slips up to Zack Ryder's

00:06:50.779 --> 00:06:52.300
knee pads and trunks and he's like, I'm ready

00:06:52.300 --> 00:06:54.199
to go. Let's go. It's kind of like when we got

00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:58.980
Jiving Jimmy back for that one show. Always two

00:06:58.980 --> 00:07:00.839
pairs of tights ready to go. Have we had that

00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:05.680
show? That's the next show, isn't it? No. Didn't

00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:07.079
it already happen? I thought it already happened.

00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:09.959
No, I thought it was the next MEW show. Because

00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:11.259
it was supposed to be the last one, but it got

00:07:11.259 --> 00:07:14.399
cancelled. I think it's the next one. I thought

00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:16.439
it already happened. Too many canceled events.

00:07:16.620 --> 00:07:18.600
Anyways. Oh, I never finished my Matt Riddle

00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:21.399
story. Yeah, finish your Matt Riddle story. Anyways,

00:07:21.540 --> 00:07:24.500
yeah, we got in the car. And me, like, obviously

00:07:24.500 --> 00:07:28.180
knowing Riddle's history and past, I'm just like,

00:07:28.259 --> 00:07:30.040
man, he's probably going to want to go to the

00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:32.519
dispensary or something. Because we're in a state

00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:34.759
where there's as many dispensaries as there are

00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:36.660
Dunkin' Donuts in Massachusetts. There's one

00:07:36.660 --> 00:07:39.439
in every fucking corner. Exactly. We get in.

00:07:39.540 --> 00:07:42.279
God forbid you have flavored tobacco in Bangor,

00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:45.639
though. God forbid. God forbid. Right, exactly.

00:07:46.740 --> 00:07:50.660
Yeah, flavored tobacco is bad, guys. Small chit

00:07:50.660 --> 00:07:52.920
-chat, chit -chat, whatever, and he's talking

00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:54.740
about his flight, and just the first things out

00:07:54.740 --> 00:07:57.480
of Matt's mouth, because it's just how Matt Riddle

00:07:57.480 --> 00:08:00.899
talks. He talks just like he does in his gimmick.

00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:06.500
He lives his gimmick fully. And he's just telling

00:08:06.500 --> 00:08:10.610
me, he's like, you know, some of the women out

00:08:10.610 --> 00:08:14.850
here in these flights, they got some sort of

00:08:14.850 --> 00:08:18.149
look. And I was like, really? And he goes, yeah,

00:08:18.230 --> 00:08:20.569
I didn't say it was a good look, but it was some

00:08:20.569 --> 00:08:22.410
sort of look, and it was kind of honestly terrifying

00:08:22.410 --> 00:08:25.769
as hell. I was like, damn. He's like, no, there's

00:08:25.769 --> 00:08:28.550
some nice looking chicks out here. And then we

00:08:28.550 --> 00:08:30.430
started getting into conversations about just...

00:08:31.850 --> 00:08:35.110
uh living like economy up here versus down there

00:08:35.110 --> 00:08:36.730
and like i was telling him like yeah there's

00:08:36.730 --> 00:08:39.090
plenty of land up here to buy you could buy land

00:08:39.090 --> 00:08:41.389
up here for dirt cheap like it's cheaper to buy

00:08:41.389 --> 00:08:43.490
land up here than to rent or buy a house at this

00:08:43.490 --> 00:08:45.490
rate and like he's sitting there and he's like

00:08:45.490 --> 00:08:48.429
listening to me talk and he just goes you know

00:08:48.429 --> 00:08:51.409
that doesn't sound like a bad idea he's like

00:08:51.409 --> 00:08:53.070
maybe i talk to my wife maybe we can move up

00:08:53.070 --> 00:08:56.110
here and i was like oh wait a minute hold on

00:08:56.110 --> 00:09:02.669
just like wife, girlfriend. He said wife, and

00:09:02.669 --> 00:09:05.230
then, dude, that's where the stem of the conversation

00:09:05.230 --> 00:09:08.990
just keeps going. He told me he has five kids

00:09:08.990 --> 00:09:11.629
with, like, four different baby mamas. I'm like,

00:09:11.750 --> 00:09:14.970
Jesus Christ, man. Is he working you, or is he

00:09:14.970 --> 00:09:18.629
serious? No, he does. He showed me pictures of

00:09:18.629 --> 00:09:22.370
his kids. He's Stefan Diggs, bro. Except he's

00:09:22.370 --> 00:09:26.799
not having... Babies with Cardi B or Nicki Minaj

00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:35.039
or Beyonce or whatever. Beyonce. He's doing it

00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:37.100
with some of them women down there, I guess.

00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:42.500
He has five kids. His oldest is an adult and

00:09:42.500 --> 00:09:45.379
his youngest is probably just out of diapers.

00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:49.240
He's got a wide range. He's also 39. I was going

00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:52.039
to say, he's like ours. He's turning 40 this

00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:56.299
year or next year. I was like, all right, boys,

00:09:56.440 --> 00:09:58.320
you need anything before we go? He just looks

00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:01.419
at me and goes, can we go to the dispensary?

00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:04.559
I was like, absolutely. We can go wherever you

00:10:04.559 --> 00:10:07.440
want. Please tell me you looked at him and go,

00:10:07.500 --> 00:10:11.720
which one? Before I could, he actually, when

00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:14.940
they were sitting and taxiing into the airport,

00:10:15.139 --> 00:10:17.120
he actually was looking up dispensaries, and

00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:20.559
he goes, I saw this one that's not that far from

00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:23.100
here. It's called Foe King. And he's like, yeah,

00:10:23.139 --> 00:10:25.159
I'm only picking that because it just says Foe

00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:27.320
King, and that's fucking hilarious. So I'm like,

00:10:27.320 --> 00:10:32.059
great. So we went over there to do the Outer

00:10:32.059 --> 00:10:36.100
Hammond. a road and we go over there i almost

00:10:36.100 --> 00:10:37.960
couldn't find it because on the back end of uh

00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:40.740
one of those tire warehouse buildings it's just

00:10:40.740 --> 00:10:42.919
like way back in the middle and no you couldn't

00:10:42.919 --> 00:10:47.639
see it from the road and um so we go there i

00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:49.240
don't go inside because i'm just like i don't

00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:52.000
do any other shit like this whatever so him and

00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:57.480
calisto go in and uh they go they are in there

00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:01.779
for, I want to say, 25, almost 30 minutes. And

00:11:01.779 --> 00:11:04.000
I'm like, what the fuck are they doing in there?

00:11:04.019 --> 00:11:07.679
There's no way. And that's what I thought. So

00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:10.659
out comes Kalisto. He doesn't come out with anything.

00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:12.480
And I'm like, why the fuck is he in there then?

00:11:12.799 --> 00:11:16.279
Out comes Matt. Matt has like five fucking bags

00:11:16.279 --> 00:11:18.960
with him. And he gets in the car and he goes,

00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:22.259
yeah, they had this fucking dab rig for 50 bucks.

00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:26.120
They had this deal for buy three, get two free.

00:11:26.259 --> 00:11:29.490
And it was like, I was like, oh, but I'm like,

00:11:29.590 --> 00:11:31.769
how are you going to get any of... He had like

00:11:31.769 --> 00:11:33.970
five bags. I go, how are you going to bring all

00:11:33.970 --> 00:11:36.549
that shit with you back home? And he goes, brother,

00:11:36.649 --> 00:11:39.350
I'm going to use all this shit before I get out

00:11:39.350 --> 00:11:40.669
of there. I'm like, Jesus Christ. It's going

00:11:40.669 --> 00:11:43.490
to be gone by the time he gets back. And no,

00:11:43.509 --> 00:11:45.809
what he said, though, is that he ships things

00:11:45.809 --> 00:11:47.990
to his house all the time when he travels. So

00:11:47.990 --> 00:11:52.409
he probably packaged up the dab rig and mailed

00:11:52.409 --> 00:11:54.750
it out to his house. Yeah, I probably did that.

00:11:55.350 --> 00:11:58.870
But the other stuff, he had was just consumable

00:11:58.870 --> 00:12:03.389
so like he had consumed at some point in 24 hours

00:12:03.389 --> 00:12:06.230
less than 24 hours oh my god that sounds like

00:12:06.230 --> 00:12:09.389
my wife the shit that he got and at one point

00:12:09.389 --> 00:12:12.230
he he got some sort of dab stuff for his pen

00:12:12.230 --> 00:12:14.710
that he had and he had smoked almost the entire

00:12:14.710 --> 00:12:18.409
fucking pen before we got to august i was like

00:12:18.409 --> 00:12:21.450

00:12:21.450 --> 00:12:26.000
ride so so we leave the fucking um the the dispensary

00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:27.600
and i was like all right do you guys want to

00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:29.200
get any food before we leave before we go down

00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:31.100
and he's like yeah yeah we'll go get some food

00:12:31.100 --> 00:12:34.259
and like by the time i decided this i already

00:12:34.259 --> 00:12:38.360
was like crossing the 395 95 threshold so i was

00:12:38.360 --> 00:12:40.000
like fuck i was like we're not even going to

00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:42.620
be going towards bangor i was already on 395

00:12:42.620 --> 00:12:45.159
on 95 at this point so i was like all right we're

00:12:45.159 --> 00:12:47.460
gonna go stop at dice arts because that's fucking

00:12:47.460 --> 00:12:50.379
iconic you know we'll do that so go to we go

00:12:50.379 --> 00:12:53.960
to dice arts pull in and matt's just looking

00:12:53.960 --> 00:12:58.179
at the place and he goes this is like a fucking

00:12:58.179 --> 00:13:00.759
truck stop but i was like yeah this is actually

00:13:00.759 --> 00:13:04.000
like main's like most notable like truck stop

00:13:04.000 --> 00:13:06.539
and shit like that he goes oh shit we're at a

00:13:06.539 --> 00:13:10.399
fucking landmark i know he's just like over exaggerating

00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:13.299
everything and i'm like what the fuck dude's

00:13:13.299 --> 00:13:15.879
great but he's just like he's out of his fucking

00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:20.379
mind the way he's talking So we go into Dice

00:13:20.379 --> 00:13:22.620
Arts. Kalisto has been talking this whole time,

00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:25.299
too. Chill as fuck, dude. Very fluent in English.

00:13:25.559 --> 00:13:28.860
I was surprised at how well his English was.

00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:30.600
I have to ask one question because I'm very curious.

00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:34.940
Was Kalisto in Gimmick? He was not. He did not

00:13:34.940 --> 00:13:37.559
come to the airport in Gimmick. He was all just

00:13:37.559 --> 00:13:40.759
as himself. Let's say Dorado did that to us on

00:13:40.759 --> 00:13:42.940
a show where he was out of Gimmick and we had

00:13:42.940 --> 00:13:45.580
no idea it was him. If he wasn't with Matt Riddle,

00:13:45.580 --> 00:13:46.980
I wouldn't have fucking known it was him coming

00:13:46.980 --> 00:13:49.259
out of the fucking door. Because he texted me

00:13:49.259 --> 00:13:50.620
and was like, yeah, me and Matt are walking out

00:13:50.620 --> 00:13:52.799
through the terminal door. And I see a dude in

00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:55.419
a puff coat with aviator glasses on. You can

00:13:55.419 --> 00:14:00.240
tell he's Spanish and Mexican. Then you see six

00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:04.370
foot fucking five. bright -ass purple fucking

00:14:04.370 --> 00:14:08.730
hair, red bright puma track suit and fucking

00:14:08.730 --> 00:14:11.529
flip -flops walk out. And when fucking Matt walks,

00:14:11.870 --> 00:14:14.669
I didn't notice this until we walked into Dice

00:14:14.669 --> 00:14:17.490
Arts. I turned around, and Riddle is doing the

00:14:17.490 --> 00:14:20.289
fucking walk that he does to the ring in his

00:14:20.289 --> 00:14:24.129
entrances. Like, the fucking wide fucking...

00:14:24.129 --> 00:14:27.470
I'm not fucking kidding. And I almost had to

00:14:27.470 --> 00:14:30.129
look away and chuckle because he literally was

00:14:30.129 --> 00:14:34.889
walking like... Like this. I was like, what the

00:14:34.889 --> 00:14:38.190
fuck is he doing, dude? Did he have a signed

00:14:38.190 --> 00:14:40.750
contract with like WWE where he's allowed to

00:14:40.750 --> 00:14:45.549
smoke weed? At the time, I don't think so. I

00:14:45.549 --> 00:14:47.549
don't know how he got away with smoking weed

00:14:47.549 --> 00:14:52.490
and not getting fucking like hit with it. Well,

00:14:52.830 --> 00:14:55.210
this policy actually took weed out of it actually

00:14:55.210 --> 00:14:57.840
a few years back. oh okay i don't know if he

00:14:57.840 --> 00:15:01.080
was still with them at that point but uh he um

00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:04.620
mayer and he told me this story uh he's the reason

00:15:04.620 --> 00:15:09.759
why randy orton smokes weed now yeah he goes

00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:12.200
he goes randy would never touched a single fucking

00:15:12.200 --> 00:15:14.539
drug in his life until he met me and then when

00:15:14.539 --> 00:15:16.799
he met me i shared a pen with him once and he

00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:18.659
looked at me and like you can imagine orton's

00:15:18.659 --> 00:15:21.289
expression Remember the fucking episode of one

00:15:21.289 --> 00:15:24.250
of the shows where, like, he's fucking wafting

00:15:24.250 --> 00:15:26.269
his fucking nose, and he, like, smells that shit,

00:15:26.389 --> 00:15:28.929
and he, like, calls it out? That was him, essentially,

00:15:29.009 --> 00:15:30.669
the first time he ever sniffed it, and he took

00:15:30.669 --> 00:15:33.090
a hit once from Matt Riddle, and from then on,

00:15:33.230 --> 00:15:35.509
every time him and Matt Riddle ever were, you

00:15:35.509 --> 00:15:37.149
know, doing, like, they were tag team champs

00:15:37.149 --> 00:15:39.350
and whatever, he would always bring him fucking

00:15:39.350 --> 00:15:42.809
supplies. So, and he's like, yeah, I'm the reason

00:15:42.809 --> 00:15:44.870
why Orton gets high all the time now. I'm like,

00:15:44.970 --> 00:15:51.179
that's fucking wild, dude. Can you tell these

00:15:51.179 --> 00:15:53.240
stories, by the way, before we continue? Can

00:15:53.240 --> 00:15:55.159
we tell these stories? I think so. He didn't

00:15:55.159 --> 00:15:58.360
say I couldn't say any. There were a few. All

00:15:58.360 --> 00:16:02.340
of a sudden, Randy Orton's on the phone like,

00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:08.120
hey, guys. Now, there was a few things he told

00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:09.659
me. He was like, oh, this stays between us. I

00:16:09.659 --> 00:16:12.000
won't discuss those. But yeah, we went into Dice

00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:15.360
Arts and we went to grab food. I walk into the

00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:18.000
place with them and I was like, yeah, so all

00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:20.820
your food and shit's over there. He looks at

00:16:20.820 --> 00:16:23.120
me and goes, oh, you're giving us the whole grand

00:16:23.120 --> 00:16:25.279
tour. And I was like, it's just a fucking truck

00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:29.919
stop, man. It's not anything crazy. So they went

00:16:29.919 --> 00:16:32.240
and got their food and whatever. And I'm looking

00:16:32.240 --> 00:16:34.039
around and I'm looking for Kalisto. I was like,

00:16:34.059 --> 00:16:37.830
where the fuck is his name? Lisa's name is Emmanuel.

00:16:38.850 --> 00:16:41.669
Wow, I'm terrible with fucking Spanish names.

00:16:41.830 --> 00:16:44.549
Manny was his name. So he was referred to as

00:16:44.549 --> 00:16:47.389
Manny. So we're looking around. We're like, where's

00:16:47.389 --> 00:16:51.509
Manny? And just out loud, Riddle just goes, oh,

00:16:51.590 --> 00:16:53.409
he's probably one of those aisles because he's

00:16:53.409 --> 00:16:56.149
short as fuck. He's fucking short as hell. He's

00:16:56.149 --> 00:16:57.730
like, he's just probably short as fuck. And he's

00:16:57.730 --> 00:16:59.450
probably just trifling through those fucking

00:16:59.450 --> 00:17:01.990
aisles. I'm like, great, cool. I'm looking around.

00:17:03.419 --> 00:17:06.400
Did anybody know Matt Riddle was in the fucking

00:17:06.400 --> 00:17:11.839
shop? That's one of my normal truck stops. This

00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:14.900
is the first time I've ever experienced this

00:17:14.900 --> 00:17:20.200
from the third -person perspective. He's cashing

00:17:20.200 --> 00:17:23.460
out Riddle, and the cashier's scanning each thing.

00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:25.579
He grabs a bunch of shit. He starts scanning

00:17:25.579 --> 00:17:27.720
things, and then he just looks up, looks down,

00:17:27.819 --> 00:17:29.799
scans. He keeps looking up and down, and then

00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:32.799
he just stops. He just looks and pauses and goes,

00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:36.099
are you matt riddle and matt riddle just looks

00:17:36.099 --> 00:17:40.519
at him and just goes bro and he just like dabs

00:17:40.519 --> 00:17:43.839
him up just fucking like nerdy fucking cash register

00:17:43.839 --> 00:17:46.500
dude he just dabs him up and he was like yeah

00:17:46.500 --> 00:17:49.019
he goes can i get a picture and he just like

00:17:49.019 --> 00:17:52.019
whips out his phone and i just i took the phone

00:17:52.019 --> 00:17:55.539
and i'm the guy i'm i'm the fucking dude that's

00:17:55.539 --> 00:17:58.960
like Alright, say cheese. I'm like, am I really

00:17:58.960 --> 00:18:01.599
fucking doing this right now? Took a photo with

00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:10.259
him and then fucking wild, dude. No, but it gets

00:18:10.259 --> 00:18:12.559
better. So we go to walk out and I'm looking

00:18:12.559 --> 00:18:13.960
around. I'm like, where the fuck's Manny? He's

00:18:13.960 --> 00:18:15.480
like, oh, he's probably still getting food. We're

00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:16.900
like, we'll go out to the car, wait for him.

00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:20.059
As we're walking out. This big fucking young

00:18:20.059 --> 00:18:23.319
kid just literally is walking through the door

00:18:23.319 --> 00:18:25.720
of the... You know the building. It's like when

00:18:25.720 --> 00:18:27.779
you walk through that little aisleway door at

00:18:27.779 --> 00:18:29.559
the entrance and then you have the glass doors

00:18:29.559 --> 00:18:32.799
on the side. There's this big tubby looking...

00:18:32.799 --> 00:18:34.980
He's probably an adult, but he looked like a

00:18:34.980 --> 00:18:38.579
child. He just walks in and he stops in the middle

00:18:38.579 --> 00:18:41.980
of the front door area and he just looked like

00:18:41.980 --> 00:18:44.119
he had fucking... Just Christmas immediately

00:18:44.119 --> 00:18:46.859
happened for him. He sees Matt Riddle and goes...

00:18:47.259 --> 00:18:52.240
Matt Riddle. Immediately, Matt just goes, bro.

00:18:53.960 --> 00:18:57.279
He just gives him a high five. I was like, what

00:18:57.279 --> 00:19:00.700
the fuck, dude? That actually reminds me of a

00:19:00.700 --> 00:19:05.740
quick story. I take back everything I said about

00:19:05.740 --> 00:19:07.960
Matt. Matt seems like he's very chill to hang

00:19:07.960 --> 00:19:10.619
out with. Years ago, I was working at the Holiday

00:19:10.619 --> 00:19:13.119
Inn over on the Alden Road, and WWE was in town.

00:19:14.260 --> 00:19:16.299
And they were staying at the Holiday Inn across

00:19:16.299 --> 00:19:19.599
the road back when, before the casino was there,

00:19:19.640 --> 00:19:21.380
there was a Holiday Inn over there. Well, they

00:19:21.380 --> 00:19:22.940
were staying there, except not all of them could

00:19:22.940 --> 00:19:24.960
get rooms. So I'm sitting there working the overnight,

00:19:25.079 --> 00:19:26.259
and I'm typing on the computer, and I hear the

00:19:26.259 --> 00:19:28.720
door ding. And it's about a 10 -second walk from

00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:30.420
the door to the front desk, so I don't look up

00:19:30.420 --> 00:19:32.440
immediately. And I'm like, eh, eh, eh. And all

00:19:32.440 --> 00:19:34.680
of a sudden, a shadow comes in front of me. And

00:19:34.680 --> 00:19:37.400
I'm like, holy crap, this guy's tall. And I look

00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:41.940
up. And I look up. And I'm like, ha, ha, ha,

00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:44.140
ha. Free of Booker T. Standing in front of me.

00:19:44.160 --> 00:19:45.779
So, like, I get where that kid's coming from.

00:19:45.900 --> 00:19:47.980
Because, like, you don't expect that shit, right?

00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:53.220
This is the photo. I don't know if I'll blur

00:19:53.220 --> 00:19:55.680
out a little bit. But, like, I'm literally just,

00:19:55.819 --> 00:19:59.380
like, I'm this guy now. Like, I only have this

00:19:59.380 --> 00:20:01.119
photo because he didn't have his phone. The kid

00:20:01.119 --> 00:20:03.319
didn't have his phone on him. So, I took the

00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:05.799
photo and then sent it to his phone number. So,

00:20:05.980 --> 00:20:08.299
he has that. He never messaged me and, like,

00:20:08.420 --> 00:20:10.359
saying thanks. I just sent him the photo and

00:20:10.359 --> 00:20:13.670
he just hasn't. like that's totally riddled to

00:20:13.670 --> 00:20:17.650
just go bro yes but that's what he did with every

00:20:17.650 --> 00:20:22.269
interaction like that's the funniest shit like

00:20:22.269 --> 00:20:25.970
he said we go to get in the car and so i ask

00:20:25.970 --> 00:20:28.670
him like so obviously this happens quite often

00:20:28.670 --> 00:20:31.230
where does this happen the most and he goes whatever

00:20:31.230 --> 00:20:35.309
you do bro Don't bring me to a Walmart. For some

00:20:35.309 --> 00:20:39.269
reason, I am completely attracted to everyone

00:20:39.269 --> 00:20:41.829
in Walmart. Doesn't matter if I'm in Mississippi.

00:20:42.349 --> 00:20:45.029
Doesn't matter if I'm in California. It's just

00:20:45.029 --> 00:20:46.829
like a name of these random states. He's like,

00:20:46.930 --> 00:20:50.339
they find me there. I will be there for. hours

00:20:50.339 --> 00:20:53.119
taking photos and signing autographs. They're

00:20:53.119 --> 00:20:54.339
like, I don't know what it is with them Walmart

00:20:54.339 --> 00:20:57.259
bitches, but they all want to take photos of

00:20:57.259 --> 00:20:59.200
me. It's just like all in gimmick the whole time.

00:20:59.500 --> 00:21:01.619
Statistically speaking, where's the place that's

00:21:01.619 --> 00:21:03.859
going to have the most wrestling fans? Walmart.

00:21:04.180 --> 00:21:07.519
There you go. So I thought that was kind of funny.

00:21:07.660 --> 00:21:13.279
So yeah, we get in there. Oh, plot twist. LA

00:21:13.279 --> 00:21:15.519
Knight beat Zack Ryder to advance in the last

00:21:15.519 --> 00:21:18.220
semis after. What? I wasn't watching it, but

00:21:18.220 --> 00:21:22.799
yeah, no. Zack Ryder lost to Ellie. Oh, shit.

00:21:25.240 --> 00:21:27.660
Cardona's probably like, Cardona's probably like,

00:21:27.660 --> 00:21:29.640
you can win a few zeros in front of that, and

00:21:29.640 --> 00:21:33.299
I'll work for you. Oh, okay. He'll, yeah. We'll

00:21:33.299 --> 00:21:36.140
probably find out who the next four are after...

00:21:36.140 --> 00:21:38.819
I still say Edge shows up somehow. Actually,

00:21:38.980 --> 00:21:43.539
no. Have they not shown? I don't think so. You

00:21:43.539 --> 00:21:48.390
know, speaking of Sorry, random things. I was

00:21:48.390 --> 00:21:50.369
watching something today, and they were talking

00:21:50.369 --> 00:21:53.089
about Finn Balor and the demon, and why he doesn't

00:21:53.089 --> 00:21:55.569
use the demon anymore. And I'm like, mostly because

00:21:55.569 --> 00:21:57.250
they lost the last two times they used the demon?

00:21:57.950 --> 00:22:00.289
And, like, it sucks. Yeah, they kind of ruined

00:22:00.289 --> 00:22:03.509
the demon king. The demon shows up, the demon

00:22:03.509 --> 00:22:05.549
wins. That's the way that should work. The demon

00:22:05.549 --> 00:22:10.809
should show up. Yeah. For the demon, if he shows

00:22:10.809 --> 00:22:13.210
up, he should win. Because that should be like,

00:22:13.309 --> 00:22:16.490
oh, crap, it's gotten that far, right? Him losing

00:22:16.490 --> 00:22:18.730
to Edge was stupid. Him losing to Roman Reigns

00:22:18.730 --> 00:22:23.289
was even stupider. The Roman Reigns, though,

00:22:23.309 --> 00:22:27.009
is the top rope broke, right? Something stupid

00:22:27.009 --> 00:22:31.690
like that. Yeah, that was all planned, though.

00:22:31.730 --> 00:22:35.349
You know that. WWE Shop just posted. I just saw

00:22:35.349 --> 00:22:37.630
an email from WWE Shop. It says, Zack Ryder returns.

00:22:38.309 --> 00:22:40.390
Shop his gear so you can buy Zack Ryder gear

00:22:40.390 --> 00:22:42.990
on WWE Shop right now. Oh, so Cardona's like,

00:22:43.130 --> 00:22:46.089
all right. Cardona's just like, I sold out, fuckers.

00:22:47.329 --> 00:22:53.390
He doesn't care. Oh, okay. Conclude my story

00:22:53.390 --> 00:22:56.609
with Cardona. Or Cardona. Jesus Christ, Riddle.

00:22:58.710 --> 00:23:01.029
We get in the car. We drive to Augusta. The whole

00:23:01.029 --> 00:23:04.539
car ride is just Riddle. talking about every

00:23:04.539 --> 00:23:07.880
fucking conspiracy you could fucking imagine.

00:23:09.460 --> 00:23:12.039
We're talking politics, we're talking outer space,

00:23:12.319 --> 00:23:15.779
we're talking fucking third world countries and

00:23:15.779 --> 00:23:21.460
lost islands. It felt like a brain tree, like

00:23:21.460 --> 00:23:24.440
one of those tree fucking stems. My brain was

00:23:24.440 --> 00:23:28.779
just fucking fogging, dude. And I'm just driving.

00:23:28.799 --> 00:23:31.160
I'm sober as a fucking whistle, but these motherfuckers

00:23:31.160 --> 00:23:37.750
are high on a kite. And I'm just like, the whole

00:23:37.750 --> 00:23:39.630
time we never stopped talking about just some

00:23:39.630 --> 00:23:42.470
random fucking shit. How did you not get a contact

00:23:42.470 --> 00:23:46.829
high? Oh, I had to have. I think I did, realistically.

00:23:48.269 --> 00:23:51.109
But yeah, we got to the venue. And when we got

00:23:51.109 --> 00:23:53.509
to the venue and we pull out the gear and everything

00:23:53.509 --> 00:23:56.910
out of the back, Kalisto then puts on his mask,

00:23:57.089 --> 00:24:00.220
walks into the door. and then realizing that

00:24:00.220 --> 00:24:02.640
there are no fans or anything that are inside

00:24:02.640 --> 00:24:05.059
at this point he takes his mask off so like he

00:24:05.059 --> 00:24:07.579
he stayed out of gimmick all the way up until

00:24:07.579 --> 00:24:10.579
he got dressed and even after he got dressed

00:24:10.579 --> 00:24:13.119
he kind of kept the mask off out back until like

00:24:13.119 --> 00:24:17.839
five minutes before he went out so like he very

00:24:17.839 --> 00:24:21.500
uh not he he just lives in his own life like

00:24:21.500 --> 00:24:24.839
obviously being like guys like ray yeah or you

00:24:24.839 --> 00:24:27.400
know bigger stars like that people are currently

00:24:27.400 --> 00:24:30.200
in wwe Not all of them walk around with their

00:24:30.200 --> 00:24:35.059
masks. I know. Penta doesn't wear his shit. I

00:24:35.059 --> 00:24:38.640
noticed. Harry Aaron told me that, actually.

00:24:38.700 --> 00:24:41.400
He says when Penta's not in gimmick, you don't

00:24:41.400 --> 00:24:43.799
know it's Penta. Right. But when you look at

00:24:43.799 --> 00:24:46.259
photos of him, though, when you look at Cleestone,

00:24:46.559 --> 00:24:50.400
this is fucked for me to say right now. Very

00:24:50.400 --> 00:24:53.240
fucked for me to say. But he looks like every

00:24:53.240 --> 00:24:56.490
other... guy that would be like a luchador wrestler

00:24:56.490 --> 00:24:59.869
without a mask on they all have that same facial

00:24:59.869 --> 00:25:02.210
structure they all have that same kind of look

00:25:02.210 --> 00:25:06.009
and it's kind of awkward to say it like that

00:25:06.009 --> 00:25:12.900
but that's you couldn't tell I got you, kid.

00:25:13.259 --> 00:25:16.039
Honestly, though, those guys can walk into a

00:25:16.039 --> 00:25:18.400
crowded room and no one will know who they are.

00:25:18.599 --> 00:25:26.059
They're an anonymity that is camouflaged still.

00:25:26.160 --> 00:25:29.420
They don't know who it is. Again, a great example.

00:25:29.440 --> 00:25:32.019
That was at the Limitless show where Lindsay

00:25:32.019 --> 00:25:34.759
Dorado was doing a seminar. We're all there talking

00:25:34.759 --> 00:25:37.660
around. No one knows him. All of a sudden, he

00:25:37.660 --> 00:25:38.960
slides in the ring and we all thought it was

00:25:38.960 --> 00:25:42.259
a chaotic kid. Yeah. All of a sudden, like, this,

00:25:42.339 --> 00:25:44.279
like, you know, let's say it's not a big guy.

00:25:44.279 --> 00:25:45.720
I feel like that's how itchy Bon is. It's just

00:25:45.720 --> 00:25:47.660
because he's just a random chaotic kid. He probably

00:25:47.660 --> 00:25:49.119
rolls in, and they're like, who the fuck is this

00:25:49.119 --> 00:25:51.420
guy? Oh, it's itchy Bon. I thought it was, like,

00:25:51.440 --> 00:25:53.299
legit, like, just some guy from, like, Chaotic

00:25:53.299 --> 00:25:55.700
or NEPA or something. That was like, hey, guys,

00:25:55.740 --> 00:25:57.119
we all stretched out, ready to go. And all of

00:25:57.119 --> 00:25:58.900
a sudden, we're like, oh, shit, you're insane.

00:25:59.279 --> 00:26:05.680
Oh. Oh. Any update? We got Carmelo. Carmelo.

00:26:06.059 --> 00:26:13.089
Yeah. Carmelo Hayes. And... Oh, God. Who the

00:26:13.089 --> 00:26:15.309
fuck... I can't even fucking see what this is.

00:26:15.670 --> 00:26:21.230
Do you need glasses, too? I do. Bronson reads

00:26:21.230 --> 00:26:26.970
in it. Penta. Yeah, Penta. The mystery was...

00:26:26.970 --> 00:26:30.329
I only saw three. There must have been a fourth

00:26:30.329 --> 00:26:31.789
person. I didn't see who the fourth person was.

00:26:35.809 --> 00:26:38.589
But, yeah, no. Speaking of those... Speaking

00:26:38.589 --> 00:26:41.170
of the weed stores, when you brought that up,

00:26:41.250 --> 00:26:44.430
my wife had to travel out of state because they

00:26:44.430 --> 00:26:48.069
were burying her grandfather. And he wanted to

00:26:48.069 --> 00:26:52.549
be buried in Connecticut with his father. Sorry,

00:26:52.930 --> 00:26:56.430
Penta versus Finn Balor is next SmackDown's first

00:26:56.430 --> 00:27:00.829
round. Penta versus Finn Balor, bro. Sorry, I

00:27:00.829 --> 00:27:06.789
didn't mean to cut you off. So they stop at the...

00:27:07.420 --> 00:27:11.400
the weed store and she buys a fuckload because

00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:12.839
she's like, oh, I'm going to be in the car for

00:27:12.839 --> 00:27:16.480
so long. I'll be all set. She buys a shitload

00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:23.240
of edibles, pretzels, a couple of dad pens, just

00:27:23.240 --> 00:27:27.400
a bunch of shit, drinks, and they're heading

00:27:27.400 --> 00:27:30.839
almost out of Maine. Her dad, who's driving the

00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:34.819
whole time, he goes, hey, you finish those? She

00:27:34.819 --> 00:27:39.210
goes, what? You know we can't leave with that

00:27:39.210 --> 00:27:41.869
in the car outside of Maine, right? So I would

00:27:41.869 --> 00:27:44.509
hurry the fuck up and finish all that. So she

00:27:44.509 --> 00:27:50.970
drank like two fucking THC drinks, a bag, shitload

00:27:50.970 --> 00:27:53.789
of pretzels. She said she was high as fuck for

00:27:53.789 --> 00:27:57.049
the whole time, including the next day. Ow, cats!

00:28:00.869 --> 00:28:03.930
Cats is getting attacked by cats. Your son sounds

00:28:03.930 --> 00:28:07.319
very weird. The cat climbed on my leg and I pulled

00:28:07.319 --> 00:28:14.339
him off. Oh, he ripped my shirt, that dick. Wow.

00:28:14.859 --> 00:28:19.420
I got a new kitten. Not by choice. My cat had

00:28:19.420 --> 00:28:21.720
kittens and we're going to get rid of them. To

00:28:21.720 --> 00:28:24.599
stop the meltdown for my children, we had to

00:28:24.599 --> 00:28:28.720
keep one. We kept one of them. Now, did we get

00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:31.940
the cat fixed? It's only eight weeks old. I can't

00:28:31.940 --> 00:28:35.009
get it fixed yet. Hey, the adult one you bought.

00:28:35.069 --> 00:28:37.230
Oh, no, I haven't got the adult one fixed yet.

00:28:39.170 --> 00:28:44.549
Not yet. I will. Unless you guys want more. I

00:28:44.549 --> 00:28:50.410
got four. And then I got a fucking. Okay. I appreciate

00:28:50.410 --> 00:28:52.970
that you have that you like me, Kat, but I'm

00:28:52.970 --> 00:28:55.529
in the middle of a show. So can you fuck off?

00:28:57.430 --> 00:29:00.940
But yeah, in any ways of that. What was going

00:29:00.940 --> 00:29:03.460
to talk about? Oh, speaking of Matt Cardona,

00:29:03.619 --> 00:29:07.940
did you see that they didn't release that Joe

00:29:07.940 --> 00:29:13.759
Hendry signed for WWE? Yeah. Sam woke me up to

00:29:13.759 --> 00:29:15.099
that this morning. She's like, hey, hey, look

00:29:15.099 --> 00:29:17.059
at this. Look at this phone in my face. I'm not

00:29:17.059 --> 00:29:20.880
even awake yet. There's a phone right here. She's

00:29:20.880 --> 00:29:22.240
like, Joe Hendry signed for WWE. I was like,

00:29:22.319 --> 00:29:27.920
cool. Here's the funniest thing about that. So

00:29:27.920 --> 00:29:30.619
when Joe first did the say his name and he appears

00:29:30.619 --> 00:29:33.440
like that, that got big, I would mess with her

00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:35.819
with that. And she hated it. Now it's her Monday

00:29:35.819 --> 00:29:40.160
morning alarm. Damn. So every Monday morning,

00:29:40.380 --> 00:29:44.400
like I'm having, just wait. Yeah. I was like,

00:29:44.539 --> 00:29:45.759
and all of a sudden you're like, you're half

00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:51.119
asleep. Like, and you're like, clap. That gets

00:29:51.119 --> 00:29:53.000
you the worst part. If you have one of those,

00:29:53.079 --> 00:29:57.700
what are the, not night tears, but, sleep paralysis.

00:29:58.200 --> 00:30:01.099
You have a sleep paralysis. Joe Hendry's in the

00:30:01.099 --> 00:30:08.440
background. What the fuck? My favorite relatable

00:30:08.440 --> 00:30:11.119
one is actually a sleep paralysis, Stephen, but

00:30:11.119 --> 00:30:14.500
it's Scott South from Creed. Where are you all?

00:30:14.619 --> 00:30:22.259
Where are you? Did you ever see when, oh, who

00:30:22.259 --> 00:30:24.380
was it? It was Blade Bandit did a promo and he

00:30:24.380 --> 00:30:26.599
actually did the Joe Hendry turn. in the promo.

00:30:27.259 --> 00:30:32.119
It was great. It was great. And I was like, I

00:30:32.119 --> 00:30:33.700
hit him up immediately, like, Blade, really?

00:30:33.859 --> 00:30:36.380
The freaking Joe Head return. Ben, of course,

00:30:36.460 --> 00:30:37.960
Ben being Ben, is like, I want everyone to do

00:30:37.960 --> 00:30:39.480
Joe Head returns with their promos from this

00:30:39.480 --> 00:30:41.640
weekend. I was like, I'm not fighting anyone

00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:43.799
this weekend. He's like, no promo anyway! I was

00:30:43.799 --> 00:30:46.339
like, alright. Actually, speaking of promos,

00:30:46.380 --> 00:30:48.880
I now need to cut one on freaking Chad Casanova,

00:30:48.940 --> 00:30:51.660
because he cut one on me today, a little bastard.

00:30:51.900 --> 00:30:53.720
And he's like, oh, three -legged table, can't

00:30:53.720 --> 00:30:54.819
stand it. I'm like, have you never heard of a

00:30:54.819 --> 00:30:56.920
stool? You're going to let the toothpick talk

00:30:56.920 --> 00:30:58.579
to you like that. I know. I'm going to throw

00:30:58.579 --> 00:31:00.299
him again. I'm just going to throw him. I'm going

00:31:00.299 --> 00:31:02.259
to throw him again. Yeah, he's a lot easier to

00:31:02.259 --> 00:31:05.839
throw than me. Yes, he's also 100 pounds lighter.

00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:12.220
Like 200 pounds lighter. No, I think he's a buck

00:31:12.220 --> 00:31:15.000
45 or buck 50, somewhere in that area. Yeah,

00:31:15.079 --> 00:31:19.299
he's soaking wet. Oh, speaking of which, Lucha

00:31:19.299 --> 00:31:22.130
Kid, too. All of a sudden, it hits up my pose

00:31:22.130 --> 00:31:24.650
with the title of the crown of Maine. She was

00:31:24.650 --> 00:31:26.509
like, don't look really good around my waist.

00:31:26.569 --> 00:31:29.970
I was like, get in line. Second of all, you know

00:31:29.970 --> 00:31:32.750
I could throw you, right? What's that kid's new

00:31:32.750 --> 00:31:36.289
name now? Oh, Levi Lexington or something like

00:31:36.289 --> 00:31:40.150
that. I was like, I found the name. I was like,

00:31:40.170 --> 00:31:42.509
someone added me or something. I saw some sort

00:31:42.509 --> 00:31:44.789
of name. I was like, who the fuck is this fucking

00:31:44.789 --> 00:31:48.869
joke? I was like, oh, it's Lucha Kid. It is.

00:31:49.709 --> 00:31:54.109
Logan Lennox. Logan Lennox. Okay. I guarantee

00:31:54.109 --> 00:31:57.869
this. I hope he's watching and he sees this because

00:31:57.869 --> 00:32:03.990
I guarantee we're going to see this. Guarantee

00:32:03.990 --> 00:32:08.069
it. Guarantee it. First crowd of main show, he

00:32:08.069 --> 00:32:11.289
gets up there in the top rope, goes, and I'm

00:32:11.289 --> 00:32:12.809
going to be like, I'm just going to scream out,

00:32:12.950 --> 00:32:19.990
Zack Ryder! God. I know it's going to happen.

00:32:21.609 --> 00:32:25.049
I know it. I know it. And I hope it's my first

00:32:25.049 --> 00:32:26.190
opponent because I'm just going to drop him on

00:32:26.190 --> 00:32:32.230
his head. Did I get a catwalk back into the end

00:32:32.230 --> 00:32:34.329
of that whole thing? I did. That's why I'm laughing.

00:32:35.049 --> 00:32:36.990
We're talking about Logan Lennox, the former

00:32:36.990 --> 00:32:40.589
Lucha King. Logan Lennox. Who is now the disciple

00:32:40.589 --> 00:32:43.910
of one Alan Prophet. So there's a whole other

00:32:43.910 --> 00:32:46.890
cult leader we've got to fucking deal with. Oh,

00:32:46.890 --> 00:32:50.349
yeah. Fucking bullshit. Alan Profit out here

00:32:50.349 --> 00:32:52.529
making poor choices for you as well. He's always

00:32:52.529 --> 00:32:54.190
made poor choices. It's Alan Profit. Have you

00:32:54.190 --> 00:32:57.650
met him? Yeah, I've also tangled with him a time

00:32:57.650 --> 00:33:00.569
or two. I've always thought about it. The loss

00:33:00.569 --> 00:33:03.170
record between each other is very 50 -50 as I've

00:33:03.170 --> 00:33:07.349
just realized. I've only fought Alan once. He

00:33:07.349 --> 00:33:09.109
actually does want to have a match with me again.

00:33:09.250 --> 00:33:12.509
He's like, let me have a match with Alan. I looked

00:33:12.509 --> 00:33:14.349
at him and was like, Alan, I don't do flippy

00:33:14.349 --> 00:33:17.849
shit. I want to have a match with Allen, and

00:33:17.849 --> 00:33:19.349
I don't want to break his ankle like you did.

00:33:20.369 --> 00:33:23.430
Listen, he broke my ankle because he fucking

00:33:23.430 --> 00:33:25.549
didn't do the shit that he was supposed to do.

00:33:25.869 --> 00:33:31.150
So he didn't fucking spread his legs. I was coming

00:33:31.150 --> 00:33:33.250
in, and instead of doing a cannonball, I called

00:33:33.250 --> 00:33:35.690
it. It was a missile dropkick while there was

00:33:35.690 --> 00:33:37.690
a chair laying up against him, and I was just

00:33:37.690 --> 00:33:40.299
going to kick the chair. As I went in for the

00:33:40.299 --> 00:33:43.180
fucking dropkick, I watched this little fucker's

00:33:43.180 --> 00:33:46.960
legs literally come in like this. And I was like,

00:33:47.059 --> 00:33:49.559
oh, no. And then I watched one of his ankles.

00:33:49.619 --> 00:33:54.259
Oh, no. Like, literally just, it popped straight

00:33:54.259 --> 00:33:57.940
down like a fucking foot pedal. And 25 minutes,

00:33:58.079 --> 00:34:01.519
broken ankle and all. does the entire fucking

00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:04.000
hardcore match with me everything under the sun

00:34:04.000 --> 00:34:06.259
we did light tubes guys please everything just

00:34:06.259 --> 00:34:09.360
any broken angle completely the entire time i

00:34:09.360 --> 00:34:12.599
was like what the fuck and then he told me two

00:34:12.599 --> 00:34:14.599
months later that it broke i was like why did

00:34:14.599 --> 00:34:17.239
you wait two months to tell me that this happened

00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:19.860
he goes oh i thought i told you already i was

00:34:19.860 --> 00:34:22.900
like i clearly know but then i watched the match

00:34:22.900 --> 00:34:25.139
back and i'm watching hobbling and i'm like oh

00:34:25.139 --> 00:34:28.679
no he definitely fucked up there's There's the

00:34:28.679 --> 00:34:33.059
match. It was the Whoopi Five Festival two years

00:34:33.059 --> 00:34:34.739
ago and it hurt my leg. You can instantly tell

00:34:34.739 --> 00:34:38.260
my leg was messed up. You see me land and I bounce

00:34:38.260 --> 00:34:40.579
on it. I put my foot down and I push on it twice.

00:34:40.719 --> 00:34:42.840
I'm like, okay, I didn't roll my Achilles tendon.

00:34:42.920 --> 00:34:48.460
That's good. I almost broke my neck at Geno's.

00:34:48.599 --> 00:34:52.139
The last Geno show. How? It was my own fault.

00:34:52.619 --> 00:34:56.199
I was wrestling two new kids that never worked

00:34:56.199 --> 00:34:59.929
before. and um hold on hold on hold on you've

00:34:59.929 --> 00:35:01.829
never worked before or they have never worked

00:35:01.829 --> 00:35:04.909
before that i've never worked before okay uh

00:35:04.909 --> 00:35:08.349
they were one of them was chaotic kid the other

00:35:08.349 --> 00:35:14.889
one was a next gen kid was that um cory and no

00:35:14.889 --> 00:35:19.869
no no these were one kid has a good look the

00:35:19.869 --> 00:35:24.050
other one i forget what his fucking name is um

00:35:24.969 --> 00:35:28.269
I think his name was Sean something. Sean...

00:35:28.269 --> 00:35:35.070
Oh, I know him. Yeah. I don't, honestly. Actually,

00:35:35.130 --> 00:35:37.130
I can pull up my messages and scroll back a little

00:35:37.130 --> 00:35:38.710
bit and find them because they sent them the

00:35:38.710 --> 00:35:45.269
video. I want to say that their names were...

00:35:45.269 --> 00:35:48.630
That reminds me. One of their names, his name

00:35:48.630 --> 00:35:51.210
was Lorenz Hoyt. I don't know what his gimmick

00:35:51.210 --> 00:35:57.750
was. No, I know Lorenz. Yeah. Sean Morris. That's

00:35:57.750 --> 00:36:02.929
it. I worked a three -way with them and Lorenz.

00:36:03.170 --> 00:36:07.010
At one point, he slipped out of something of

00:36:07.010 --> 00:36:09.670
mine and he gave me a DDT. It was just a cutoff.

00:36:10.070 --> 00:36:12.349
We went for the DDT because of the momentum.

00:36:12.590 --> 00:36:17.150
I tried to spike it. Instead of spiking it, all

00:36:17.150 --> 00:36:20.570
of my weight dropped down. As I came down, I

00:36:20.570 --> 00:36:24.820
heard my neck crack so many times. I literally

00:36:24.820 --> 00:36:28.559
just adjusted my neck. But I think I had that

00:36:28.559 --> 00:36:33.019
with Dave. It was fucking hurting. You know what

00:36:33.019 --> 00:36:36.159
happened with me? A certain person gave me a

00:36:36.159 --> 00:36:44.400
pile driver and I went this way. I have that

00:36:44.400 --> 00:36:46.980
video. Don't fucking say you didn't. I have it

00:36:46.980 --> 00:36:51.460
on TikTok. In his defense, you also kind of fucked

00:36:51.460 --> 00:36:55.300
up a Tiger driver, too. Okay, in my defense,

00:36:55.519 --> 00:36:59.780
I've never taken one before, so fuck off. I didn't

00:36:59.780 --> 00:37:04.079
know he had to sit up like a powerbomb. I still

00:37:04.079 --> 00:37:06.420
love that conversation of Dad just going at the

00:37:06.420 --> 00:37:10.900
end of it like, you never do that again. Me looking

00:37:10.900 --> 00:37:16.119
at him like, yeah, duh. pull up the... Yeah,

00:37:16.119 --> 00:37:19.360
Dave Dyer in the Mojo the Dojo, I did the exact

00:37:19.360 --> 00:37:21.400
same thing. I went to go spike myself, and instead

00:37:21.400 --> 00:37:23.739
of spiking myself, I fucked my neck up. I don't

00:37:23.739 --> 00:37:25.380
know why you would even attempt to try and do

00:37:25.380 --> 00:37:27.559
something like that, you silly goose. Because

00:37:27.559 --> 00:37:33.179
it looked cool? It looked cool, yeah. How much

00:37:33.179 --> 00:37:35.579
shit do we do because that looked cool in the

00:37:35.579 --> 00:37:38.019
moment? I want Stormy to do a freaking five -knuckle

00:37:38.019 --> 00:37:41.440
shuffle to me this last Thursday. Because it

00:37:41.440 --> 00:37:44.269
looked cool. No, it's Down East Horizons, by

00:37:44.269 --> 00:37:45.570
the way. Down East Horizons. Shout out. They

00:37:45.570 --> 00:37:48.889
gave us hoodies. That was cool. Cool. Yeah. And

00:37:48.889 --> 00:37:50.949
Storm and I literally were like, we're calling

00:37:50.949 --> 00:37:52.010
the match. And he's like, what do you want to

00:37:52.010 --> 00:37:53.449
do? And I'm like, you want to just have like

00:37:53.449 --> 00:37:55.610
a John Cena, Randy Orton match? Because it finishes

00:37:55.610 --> 00:37:57.909
a cutter. He started laughing because he's a

00:37:57.909 --> 00:37:59.230
huge Cena mark. And he's like, yeah, that'll

00:37:59.230 --> 00:38:01.329
be fun. So he hit me with the five knuckle shuffle.

00:38:01.809 --> 00:38:05.150
He put me in the STFO. And he set me up for an

00:38:05.150 --> 00:38:07.710
AA. I hit him with the draping DDT and the cutter.

00:38:11.839 --> 00:38:13.840
Except I've never done a dripping DDT before,

00:38:13.940 --> 00:38:15.199
so I didn't realize when you have them for the

00:38:15.199 --> 00:38:16.940
DT, you need to put the other arm under and pick

00:38:16.940 --> 00:38:19.519
them up. It's hard to see, but it's the easiest

00:38:19.519 --> 00:38:23.460
way for me to... I remember this match. So, I

00:38:23.460 --> 00:38:26.139
know it's blurry, but if you watch very carefully,

00:38:26.360 --> 00:38:29.619
notice him sitting in the corner. I go to take

00:38:29.619 --> 00:38:32.900
this chair, and I put the chair up against his

00:38:32.900 --> 00:38:36.460
face, and it's going to be hard to tell. But

00:38:36.460 --> 00:38:39.400
he literally tucks his fucking legs in. He literally

00:38:39.400 --> 00:38:41.420
tucks his legs in, and I break his ankle right

00:38:41.420 --> 00:38:44.860
on the spot. This is... The short is actually

00:38:44.860 --> 00:38:47.519
on my YouTube channel, Big Cat Tyler Adams, because

00:38:47.519 --> 00:38:50.400
he talked about it on the podcast before, and

00:38:50.400 --> 00:38:53.699
I did a short of it. This was four minutes. This

00:38:53.699 --> 00:38:55.340
was like two minutes into the match. We would

00:38:55.340 --> 00:38:58.920
go on for another 20 minutes, and he had his

00:38:58.920 --> 00:39:03.019
whole ankle broken. What a dick. I can't believe

00:39:03.019 --> 00:39:05.619
he did that. I just showed you video evidence

00:39:05.619 --> 00:39:07.480
of him literally taking his feet and just going,

00:39:07.539 --> 00:39:10.579
If he didn't do that, we wouldn't have had probably

00:39:10.579 --> 00:39:13.519
a much better match. Let's get Alan Proffitt

00:39:13.519 --> 00:39:15.800
on the show to tell his side of the story. Honestly,

00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:18.320
you need an Alan Proffitt episode, for sure.

00:39:18.579 --> 00:39:21.900
Yeah, definitely. Because if it wasn't for Alan

00:39:21.900 --> 00:39:25.539
Proffitt, me and him, we were like 11, 12 years

00:39:25.539 --> 00:39:28.679
old. wrestling in his backyard on giant piles

00:39:28.679 --> 00:39:30.880
of fucking snow that's how like my whole wrestling

00:39:30.880 --> 00:39:33.179
thing started we literally created a backyard

00:39:33.179 --> 00:39:36.820
federation and we had done it for years i mean

00:39:36.820 --> 00:39:39.320
like from middle school or like sixth grade all

00:39:39.320 --> 00:39:41.500
the way through my senior year high school just

00:39:41.500 --> 00:39:44.280
backyard fucking shit in fairfield and then when

00:39:44.280 --> 00:39:48.119
i left to go to college he kept it going and

00:39:48.119 --> 00:39:50.599
it oh my god i've never seen you wear fucking

00:39:50.599 --> 00:39:53.469
glasses before because Because this is the first

00:39:53.469 --> 00:39:55.630
time I've worn glasses because I need the glasses

00:39:55.630 --> 00:40:02.929
to see. So I'm blind without glasses, by the

00:40:02.929 --> 00:40:07.550
way. I can see them right here. I can't read

00:40:07.550 --> 00:40:13.050
without these. I found that out. So let me tell

00:40:13.050 --> 00:40:18.179
you a little secret. Get non -glare on your glasses,

00:40:18.300 --> 00:40:20.019
because you know how I have no glare on mine,

00:40:20.079 --> 00:40:21.179
even though the light's right here? These are

00:40:21.179 --> 00:40:23.519
cheap -ass glasses. I just needed them to read.

00:40:24.599 --> 00:40:26.000
All right, well, I can see whatever's in your

00:40:26.000 --> 00:40:27.519
monitor on your glasses, so don't worry. Okay,

00:40:27.559 --> 00:40:29.739
so that's good. I'll make sure I close out my

00:40:29.739 --> 00:40:36.079
porn. Okay. So what I was going to get into is,

00:40:36.099 --> 00:40:40.400
speaking of Alan Proffitt, we got the... Indy

00:40:40.400 --> 00:40:44.800
1000. The top Indy wrestlers. None of us are

00:40:44.800 --> 00:40:48.199
on it either. What the fuck? I'm honestly surprised

00:40:48.199 --> 00:40:51.400
Jason Maverick is not on it. Jason's not on it.

00:40:51.420 --> 00:40:54.079
We're not on it, but yet, I love Calvin. Do not

00:40:54.079 --> 00:40:59.760
take this the wrong way. Calvin was surprised

00:40:59.760 --> 00:41:02.800
when I told him. He had no fucking clue. He's

00:41:02.800 --> 00:41:05.219
like, I made this? There were some that were

00:41:05.219 --> 00:41:08.530
questionable. Yeah, so I don't understand. Selina

00:41:08.530 --> 00:41:10.070
Hecate and I were talking about it, too, and

00:41:10.070 --> 00:41:11.690
Selina's like, there's some names on here. I'm

00:41:11.690 --> 00:41:15.409
like, eh. Yeah, we're going to go all the way

00:41:15.409 --> 00:41:17.369
to the bottom because Calvin's on the bottom.

00:41:17.610 --> 00:41:19.690
Again, nothing against Calvin Strange because

00:41:19.690 --> 00:41:23.230
Calvin Strange is a fucking big star. However,

00:41:23.809 --> 00:41:26.230
he's wrestling. He's not really. I think I've

00:41:26.230 --> 00:41:29.170
done more matches this year than he has. Yeah,

00:41:29.190 --> 00:41:33.699
there's Calvin at 991. Yeah, 991, yeah. Sean

00:41:33.699 --> 00:41:37.519
Keegan, man. Sean Vegan Keegan. I was backwards.

00:41:38.639 --> 00:41:40.519
Sean's a great dude. I love the fact that Sean's

00:41:40.519 --> 00:41:42.079
on here. And here's the thing, guys. I'm going

00:41:42.079 --> 00:41:44.280
to say this straight up. I love the fact that

00:41:44.280 --> 00:41:46.559
my peers and friends are on this list. I really

00:41:46.559 --> 00:41:49.519
do. 100%. If they made this list, even if they

00:41:49.519 --> 00:41:51.539
didn't make this list, it's awesome to see our

00:41:51.539 --> 00:41:54.619
friends and our peers on this list. I want to

00:41:54.619 --> 00:41:58.019
be on it too, though. Right. And here's the things

00:41:58.019 --> 00:42:00.500
that also don't make sense for me. I didn't say

00:42:00.500 --> 00:42:03.559
Ace Romero on this list. It's true. I didn't

00:42:03.559 --> 00:42:06.920
see Gabby Forza on this list. I think Gabby's

00:42:06.920 --> 00:42:08.860
on there. Oh, Gabby is on here? I didn't see

00:42:08.860 --> 00:42:12.000
her. I think she is on there. I'm not 100 % on

00:42:12.000 --> 00:42:17.519
that, though. Don't quote me. I know Charles

00:42:17.519 --> 00:42:20.280
Mason's on there. Here's one that, like, Sammy

00:42:20.280 --> 00:42:23.039
Diaz. I know Sammy Diaz, but, like, number eight

00:42:23.039 --> 00:42:26.250
out of, like, love the dude, but, like... It's

00:42:26.250 --> 00:42:28.590
weird to see him higher than, like, some certain

00:42:28.590 --> 00:42:30.550
people. Also, why the fuck is Masha Slavovich

00:42:30.550 --> 00:42:36.869
at 19? Also, hold on. Sammy Diaz, like you said,

00:42:37.030 --> 00:42:41.789
above Channing Thomas, though? Right. Yeah. I

00:42:41.789 --> 00:42:47.269
mean, he's done a lot. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Diaz over

00:42:47.269 --> 00:42:51.670
Chaney. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Love Maddie, but

00:42:51.670 --> 00:42:54.590
it's like, damn. Bryce Donovan should be up around

00:42:54.590 --> 00:42:58.869
number, I don't know, eight. Dustin Waller, five.

00:42:58.969 --> 00:43:01.670
That makes sense. Is if he won, makes sense.

00:43:02.309 --> 00:43:04.869
Effie? Effie. With all the stuff he does, he

00:43:04.869 --> 00:43:07.829
is the GCW champion right now. Right. But like

00:43:07.829 --> 00:43:12.809
I was saying, he's very controversial. So, I

00:43:12.809 --> 00:43:17.320
mean. We just saw KJ Orso at GCW Unlimited List.

00:43:17.500 --> 00:43:20.760
I want to know who the fuck Tim Balsby is. There's

00:43:20.760 --> 00:43:24.599
some names on here I've never heard of. TJ Crawford,

00:43:24.659 --> 00:43:26.159
man. TJ definitely deserves to be up on that

00:43:26.159 --> 00:43:32.199
list. 100%. Kevin Blackwood. Yeah. Like I said,

00:43:32.300 --> 00:43:39.269
Notorious Mimi. I know these names. DJ Powers,

00:43:39.530 --> 00:43:42.550
I just... Joey Janelle or Matt Cardona is fucking

00:43:42.550 --> 00:43:46.030
wild. Bear Bronson at 31. Bear Bronson and Cruel

00:43:46.030 --> 00:43:48.710
at 31, 32. Bobby Orlando being immediately under

00:43:48.710 --> 00:43:52.369
Matt Cardona is fucking wild. Zillow Fatu at

00:43:52.369 --> 00:43:56.909
33. Matt Cardona at 34. Bobby Orlando, which

00:43:56.909 --> 00:44:04.400
is awesome to see him on there. 35. I'm sorry.

00:44:04.519 --> 00:44:07.199
I know I'm a CJ. Mortar at 40 is pretty awesome.

00:44:08.199 --> 00:44:13.780
39 is wild. Great woman, but the number is just

00:44:13.780 --> 00:44:19.000
wild. Desmond Cole at 46? They shouldn't have

00:44:19.000 --> 00:44:21.400
done a top 1 ,000. They should have said, these

00:44:21.400 --> 00:44:24.719
are 1 ,000 indie wrestlers. I want people that

00:44:24.719 --> 00:44:26.980
do these lists to show the formula in which they

00:44:26.980 --> 00:44:29.699
make, how these are made. I want to know if it's

00:44:29.699 --> 00:44:34.380
stats. I don't want to know if it's content on

00:44:34.380 --> 00:44:37.639
the internet. There's a tag one supposedly coming

00:44:37.639 --> 00:44:44.380
out. Top 100? I don't know. I think it's top

00:44:44.380 --> 00:44:47.820
100. I don't know if we make it, but it'd be

00:44:47.820 --> 00:44:51.199
cool if we did. I don't think we have enough

00:44:51.199 --> 00:44:56.840
matches. Aaron should be a bit higher. I know.

00:44:56.860 --> 00:44:59.219
I saw that Aaron should be a lot higher and Anthony

00:44:59.219 --> 00:45:03.539
Green at 52. Hold on. 41 is the Erika Damia,

00:45:03.619 --> 00:45:07.500
right? I saw her on WWE. Yeah. And she's basically

00:45:07.500 --> 00:45:10.639
Aaron Kadamia. It's the same fucking gimmick

00:45:10.639 --> 00:45:13.300
because it's both freaking Deku from My Hero

00:45:13.300 --> 00:45:18.539
Academia. She also just got WWE ID. Oh, did she?

00:45:18.780 --> 00:45:21.380
I'll confirm. Yeah. Do you want to see something

00:45:21.380 --> 00:45:24.489
funny, though? Oh, Kerry Ward. I love Kerry.

00:45:24.590 --> 00:45:27.190
Do you want to see something really funny? Sure.

00:45:28.030 --> 00:45:30.949
Okay. Check this out. Let me try to find the

00:45:30.949 --> 00:45:32.230
number here and make sure it's right. Oh, boy,

00:45:32.250 --> 00:45:38.769
Monty. Monty! Right here. 347. Okay. 347. All

00:45:38.769 --> 00:45:42.789
right. This is what doesn't make sense. Jay Haru.

00:45:43.510 --> 00:45:48.230
Yeah. And Agro's down low. 357. Aiden Agro. He's

00:45:48.230 --> 00:45:53.010
a bum! Second time this has happened because

00:45:53.010 --> 00:45:56.250
the black independent wrestler list was the same

00:45:56.250 --> 00:46:00.309
thing. Haru was above Agro. I'm just like, huh?

00:46:00.489 --> 00:46:03.010
Nothing against Haru. Haru is very talented.

00:46:03.389 --> 00:46:07.530
I love Haru. Agro does way more shit than Haru

00:46:07.530 --> 00:46:11.329
does. The thing is, right now, no, Haru's actually

00:46:11.329 --> 00:46:13.050
working more than Agro is because Haru works

00:46:13.050 --> 00:46:15.230
outside of Maine. Agro's not really working outside

00:46:15.230 --> 00:46:19.269
of Maine. He's not doing DPW anymore? I think

00:46:19.269 --> 00:46:23.510
he is, but I'm not sure. Was he the champion

00:46:23.510 --> 00:46:34.150
of DPW? I wish they would have just done an alphabetical

00:46:34.150 --> 00:46:38.269
order. Here's a thousand wrestlers that we think

00:46:38.269 --> 00:46:44.320
are awesome. You know what kills me, though,

00:46:44.360 --> 00:46:46.440
is when I look at these lists and I'm on here

00:46:46.440 --> 00:46:48.239
and I'm like, I worked him. I worked him. I worked

00:46:48.239 --> 00:46:59.239
him. I wrote these down. 176. 176, Leo. Leo Sparrow.

00:47:00.619 --> 00:47:03.239
Love Doug. I've never worked Love Doug. I'd love

00:47:03.239 --> 00:47:10.659
to work Love Doug. JT Dunn. 165. Like I said,

00:47:10.679 --> 00:47:13.610
our friends and our colleagues are on here. And

00:47:13.610 --> 00:47:15.949
it's cool to see them on here. I just want to

00:47:15.949 --> 00:47:19.710
be on there too. Yeah, me too. But yeah, it's

00:47:19.710 --> 00:47:21.730
crazy. I didn't see Ace on here and I didn't

00:47:21.730 --> 00:47:27.789
see Gabby. But it's Alexander. He's on here.

00:47:28.510 --> 00:47:32.730
He gads, man. I thought I saw her on the list.

00:47:34.829 --> 00:47:41.349
Way too low down the list. Ace. Ace is not on

00:47:41.349 --> 00:47:48.710
here. Ace is not on here. That's crazy. Like

00:47:48.710 --> 00:47:53.929
you said, awesome that CPA. 59. My first win.

00:47:54.909 --> 00:47:59.050
Guys, we've wrestled or shared a locker room

00:47:59.050 --> 00:48:02.010
and they're on this list. It's like, fuck. Congratulations.

00:48:02.469 --> 00:48:04.610
Like you said, I want to be on this list too.

00:48:08.949 --> 00:48:11.789
Calvin's one is just like a head scratcher. It's

00:48:11.789 --> 00:48:14.619
like... I know her. We worked shows with her.

00:48:15.239 --> 00:48:18.400
I saw Nick's for a second. I was like, uh -oh.

00:48:19.239 --> 00:48:23.780
I saw Alexander and I thought it was dad, but

00:48:23.780 --> 00:48:29.920
it was Alexander Lex or Liv. I'm like, aw. I

00:48:29.920 --> 00:48:35.800
can understand Calvin at 2018, 2019 being on

00:48:35.800 --> 00:48:38.920
this list. Because he was fucking all over the

00:48:38.920 --> 00:48:40.800
place and at it. And then COVID happened and

00:48:40.800 --> 00:48:43.340
he took a break and came back. One of my most

00:48:43.340 --> 00:48:47.420
fun feuds in wrestling was Calvin Strange from

00:48:47.420 --> 00:48:51.599
TIW. Yeah, he's like awesome. And like I said,

00:48:51.599 --> 00:48:55.719
awesome wrestler now. But he's not out there

00:48:55.719 --> 00:48:57.900
as much as a lot of these guys. And like I said,

00:48:57.960 --> 00:49:00.900
just surprisingly. If you go down to the bottom

00:49:00.900 --> 00:49:05.070
of that list, I guarantee there's guys. just

00:49:05.070 --> 00:49:06.510
around him, they're out there way more than he

00:49:06.510 --> 00:49:10.050
is. I just want to know how, again, the formula.

00:49:10.510 --> 00:49:16.110
Right. I was looking for Roblox. That's a different

00:49:16.110 --> 00:49:19.190
top list that he ends up on as Mark Mahoney because

00:49:19.190 --> 00:49:23.949
he helps write it. Of course he would fucking

00:49:23.949 --> 00:49:27.349
throw his name on there. Where's Calvin again?

00:49:27.409 --> 00:49:34.320
991, right? Yeah, 991. Yeah. Keegan 994. I'm

00:49:34.320 --> 00:49:36.099
just looking for like the read around them. Like

00:49:36.099 --> 00:49:37.639
I don't know a lot of these names. I'll be honest.

00:49:38.199 --> 00:49:41.920
No, there's a lot of names. After 500 like it's

00:49:41.920 --> 00:49:45.559
like I don't know like any of you guys. No, there's

00:49:45.559 --> 00:49:47.440
names down there. I know just because I've worked

00:49:47.440 --> 00:49:49.340
enough places. Yeah, I'll just look at random.

00:49:49.599 --> 00:49:51.760
Let's see if I can just scroll to a random point

00:49:51.760 --> 00:49:53.840
between 500 and 1000. I'll see if I can name

00:49:53.840 --> 00:49:59.840
anyone. Stop right here. Right here is good.

00:50:01.610 --> 00:50:07.630
Let's see here. Anthrax, I know. He's a H2O guy.

00:50:07.730 --> 00:50:10.050
Did a bunch of death threat shit. I think I've

00:50:10.050 --> 00:50:12.349
leased. Didn't she work for MEW at some point?

00:50:12.469 --> 00:50:17.449
Either MEW or... You guys do more shit than I

00:50:17.449 --> 00:50:22.309
do. This is 770 through 797. There's only one

00:50:22.309 --> 00:50:25.210
person I can recognize. Try one more random spot.

00:50:28.110 --> 00:50:34.869
Steve Pena. I've worked Steve. Yeah. Right there

00:50:34.869 --> 00:50:41.449
at 737. Delmi is 739. Yeah. There's Ace Perry.

00:50:42.429 --> 00:50:46.769
Christian Noir. I don't know. I don't know anybody.

00:50:47.409 --> 00:50:51.610
Hold on. This is the top 1 ,000 independent wrestlers,

00:50:51.630 --> 00:50:54.449
right? Yes. James Storm's not on this list. He's

00:50:54.449 --> 00:51:00.659
an indie guy. Maximo Suave. He was one half of...

00:51:00.659 --> 00:51:04.039
Somebody's mic is fucking up. I hope it's not

00:51:04.039 --> 00:51:09.440
mine. I see you rubbing his face on his. Yeah,

00:51:09.440 --> 00:51:11.940
stop rubbing your face on your mic, fucker. What?

00:51:13.019 --> 00:51:15.820
Stop rubbing your face on your mic. Oh, shit.

00:51:17.440 --> 00:51:20.099
Dude, Bam at 698. There you go, Bam Sullivan.

00:51:20.880 --> 00:51:25.159
Oh, shit. I love Bam. I almost died on a shopping

00:51:25.159 --> 00:51:31.059
cart. Is she still wrestling? Yeah, she's been

00:51:31.059 --> 00:51:35.679
over Europe for a while. That's why I haven't

00:51:35.679 --> 00:51:39.000
seen her. I thought I saw that 690's J -Rock.

00:51:39.219 --> 00:51:40.679
I almost shit my pants. I'm like, there's no

00:51:40.679 --> 00:51:43.420
fucking way that Johnny Primer got on there as

00:51:43.420 --> 00:51:47.920
J -Rock. That would be hilarious. Wow. Perry's

00:51:47.920 --> 00:51:53.159
on this list. I didn't see Rip, though. I feel

00:51:53.159 --> 00:51:57.219
like Rip's on there. If Perry's on there, Rip

00:51:57.219 --> 00:52:00.480
has to be on there. You think that? All right.

00:52:01.920 --> 00:52:06.619
No matches for Rip. Wow. Nope. That's crazy.

00:52:08.099 --> 00:52:12.340
Actually, fun little Rip side story. I was driving

00:52:12.340 --> 00:52:14.980
yesterday, and I got behind a vehicle, and the

00:52:14.980 --> 00:52:17.699
place said Tomahawk. And I wanted to take a picture

00:52:17.699 --> 00:52:19.039
and send it to Rip and be like, Rip, get the

00:52:19.039 --> 00:52:23.960
fuck out of my way. All you know, you know. I've

00:52:23.960 --> 00:52:27.539
only wrestled Rip as Tom Hogg. I never wrestled

00:52:27.539 --> 00:52:31.940
Rip. I wasn't that good. Me and BRG, this is

00:52:31.940 --> 00:52:35.320
throwback before BRG was BRG. This is back when

00:52:35.320 --> 00:52:39.179
you saw Todd Harris, the Draco Malfoy. We were

00:52:39.179 --> 00:52:41.579
the Social Justice League. It was so fucking

00:52:41.579 --> 00:52:45.639
bad, dude. It was just an NCW fucking gimmick,

00:52:45.639 --> 00:52:48.519
and me and him were a tag team. He was the mouthpiece,

00:52:48.539 --> 00:52:51.059
I was the enforcer, and we would go on and do

00:52:51.059 --> 00:52:54.039
all these fucking either tag matches that we

00:52:54.039 --> 00:52:57.329
were completely fucking jobbing. Or we would

00:52:57.329 --> 00:52:59.349
end up in multi -man matches where me and him

00:52:59.349 --> 00:53:02.389
would be the tag team efficiency towards the

00:53:02.389 --> 00:53:04.869
other guys as an advantage. But we would end

00:53:04.869 --> 00:53:07.469
up at a disadvantage when the one guy that was

00:53:07.469 --> 00:53:10.050
left in the ring would be a one Josh Briggs.

00:53:12.090 --> 00:53:16.869
Me and BRG would countlessly like every month.

00:53:17.289 --> 00:53:20.190
trying to get the best of josh briggs and josh

00:53:20.190 --> 00:53:23.010
briggs's rookie year and we would just end up

00:53:23.010 --> 00:53:29.409
jobbing to josh briggs we didn't like multi -man

00:53:29.409 --> 00:53:31.690
it was like a six seven man like that multi -man

00:53:31.690 --> 00:53:33.530
match where it was like pinfalls only whatever

00:53:33.530 --> 00:53:36.769
any man for himself me and brg would just team

00:53:36.769 --> 00:53:39.250
up against all the other dudes we'd get them

00:53:39.250 --> 00:53:41.969
all beaten down and then they get eliminated

00:53:41.969 --> 00:53:44.789
by somebody else. And then we'd be like, fuck,

00:53:44.869 --> 00:53:46.769
we didn't get it. It's not our credit. Like,

00:53:46.789 --> 00:53:49.409
fuck. So then eventually it came down to just

00:53:49.409 --> 00:53:53.650
me and BRG. And it was always me, BRG, and some

00:53:53.650 --> 00:53:56.829
other sufficiently bigger person. And we'd always

00:53:56.829 --> 00:53:59.070
end up getting fucking double teamed. It was

00:53:59.070 --> 00:54:02.429
hilarious. Because I was a lot smaller too. I

00:54:02.429 --> 00:54:06.369
was only like 240. And BRG was fucking too...

00:54:06.369 --> 00:54:09.260
Like, you thought Chad Casanova was small? Todd

00:54:09.260 --> 00:54:14.679
Harris was a goddamn toothpick. Those matches

00:54:14.679 --> 00:54:16.639
were fucking hilarious. Those matches were on

00:54:16.639 --> 00:54:21.019
public access TV for NCW at one point back in

00:54:21.019 --> 00:54:25.699
2016. It's crazy that they don't do that anymore.

00:54:26.610 --> 00:54:29.469
no like i i mean i bet to say that i've been

00:54:29.469 --> 00:54:33.090
on tv twice is funny because i've been on tv

00:54:33.090 --> 00:54:35.809
for two wrestling promotions it'd be ncw and

00:54:35.809 --> 00:54:38.889
i and iwe so like just the thought of that is

00:54:38.889 --> 00:54:42.469
just like a wild thing your concept right but

00:54:42.469 --> 00:54:44.530
i'm like i'm saying i'm surprised like like that

00:54:44.530 --> 00:54:46.110
isn't really a thing anymore i don't know if

00:54:46.110 --> 00:54:49.269
it's because it's just too expensive also The

00:54:49.269 --> 00:54:50.869
other problem is it's not just being expensive.

00:54:51.090 --> 00:54:54.530
They can kick you off the network for anything

00:54:54.530 --> 00:54:58.030
that can be a priority no matter what. The problem

00:54:58.030 --> 00:55:02.030
that Eric had was college football would run

00:55:02.030 --> 00:55:05.130
over IWB programming because that was more of

00:55:05.130 --> 00:55:09.190
a priority on Fox than wrestling was for local

00:55:09.190 --> 00:55:13.510
promotion. He would pay these spots every week.

00:55:13.510 --> 00:55:15.730
It was like $500 a spot or something like that.

00:55:15.869 --> 00:55:22.530
It was from noon to like 12 to 12 30 and he would

00:55:22.530 --> 00:55:25.030
get kicked off more times than it actually aired

00:55:25.030 --> 00:55:27.829
uh where it didn't end up playing because uh

00:55:27.829 --> 00:55:30.809
college football was more priority for fox uh

00:55:30.809 --> 00:55:33.969
than it was so he just he stopped probably yeah

00:55:33.969 --> 00:55:37.150
and it was well yeah it's not even just rating

00:55:37.150 --> 00:55:40.070
it was just college football like they just so

00:55:40.070 --> 00:55:43.110
like he could only run it when it wasn't football

00:55:43.110 --> 00:55:44.949
season that was the only time that he could run

00:55:44.949 --> 00:55:47.289
anything but the problem is he didn't realize

00:55:47.289 --> 00:55:50.349
that so he had shelled all this money into it

00:55:50.349 --> 00:55:53.210
that he wasn't getting back and because they

00:55:53.210 --> 00:55:55.889
were just like not telling him like hey we're

00:55:55.889 --> 00:56:00.289
just we're dropping it that's kind of frustrating

00:56:00.289 --> 00:56:02.289
you're paying for that spot just to get kicked

00:56:02.289 --> 00:56:05.289
yep and and there's no and that happens with

00:56:05.289 --> 00:56:08.409
any business um but yeah no like politicals would

00:56:08.409 --> 00:56:12.190
take over fucking local priority program um not

00:56:12.190 --> 00:56:14.449
programming but commercials even people that

00:56:14.449 --> 00:56:17.150
pay like high quality top tier like commercials

00:56:17.150 --> 00:56:20.710
every single time there's a commercial on, those

00:56:20.710 --> 00:56:23.210
get dubbed over by politicals once that political

00:56:23.210 --> 00:56:26.449
season ends. Because the amount of money that

00:56:26.449 --> 00:56:28.289
people pay for fucking politicals is the same

00:56:28.289 --> 00:56:30.909
thing as what the people that run college football

00:56:30.909 --> 00:56:34.510
are paying for to have those spots dubbed over

00:56:34.510 --> 00:56:36.570
local fucking programming. That's why you don't

00:56:36.570 --> 00:56:39.489
see local programming anymore on television that

00:56:39.489 --> 00:56:41.610
comes locally from the place that you're living

00:56:41.610 --> 00:56:43.989
in because it gets dubbed over by national fucking

00:56:43.989 --> 00:56:47.309
news. Or it's true. Even watching football, it's

00:56:47.309 --> 00:56:52.800
like, you know, Yeah, great. During an NFL broadcast.

00:56:53.900 --> 00:56:59.440
Yeah, yeah. Because they used to be like... I

00:56:59.440 --> 00:57:01.019
know they used to be like a guy that used to

00:57:01.019 --> 00:57:03.360
fix everything with duct tape and shit like that.

00:57:03.639 --> 00:57:08.019
That was on as a kid. Are you talking about red

00:57:08.019 --> 00:57:11.639
-green? Probably. Yes, that's red -green, dude.

00:57:12.639 --> 00:57:17.920
How do you... Wow. Wow. I don't know names. You

00:57:17.920 --> 00:57:21.219
know this by now. I don't know Red Green. Is

00:57:21.219 --> 00:57:29.480
that what you said? Yeah. Red Green. Wow. Ladies

00:57:29.480 --> 00:57:33.400
and gentlemen, my tag partner. I'm not good with

00:57:33.400 --> 00:57:35.940
names. You know this by now. That's actually

00:57:35.940 --> 00:57:40.159
very legit. I know you. I don't remember your

00:57:40.159 --> 00:57:42.400
name, but I know you. It's all right. Sam gives

00:57:42.400 --> 00:57:43.940
me shit about that all the time where I will

00:57:43.940 --> 00:57:46.039
remember the most random out -of -the -box shit,

00:57:46.099 --> 00:57:47.619
but I can't remember why I walked in the kitchen.

00:57:48.639 --> 00:57:51.280
She's like, you remember the lyrics. She's like,

00:57:51.300 --> 00:57:53.420
you remember the lyrics to Gummy Bears, the Gummy

00:57:53.420 --> 00:57:56.000
Bear theme song from the 90s, but you can't remember

00:57:56.000 --> 00:57:59.260
to put baking powder in with the cookies. They're

00:57:59.260 --> 00:58:01.280
actually done that, by the way, but I'm just

00:58:01.280 --> 00:58:07.000
saying. Yeah. That's where my brain works. I

00:58:07.000 --> 00:58:11.119
was legit singing freaking the Rescue Rangers

00:58:11.119 --> 00:58:13.280
theme the other day. I was bored, so I was just

00:58:13.280 --> 00:58:15.679
like, from memory, I just busted it all out,

00:58:15.760 --> 00:58:17.340
and she just looks at me and is like, are you

00:58:17.340 --> 00:58:25.000
okay? I'm like, no. So they announced today that

00:58:25.000 --> 00:58:29.000
SmackDown is now going three hours. How do you

00:58:29.000 --> 00:58:31.219
guys feel about that? Horrible, horrible idea.

00:58:31.519 --> 00:58:34.889
Horrible idea. Yeah. I was thinking the same

00:58:34.889 --> 00:58:37.289
thing. Two hours. They should just keep the two

00:58:37.289 --> 00:58:39.429
hours. I understand why they go for three, but...

00:58:39.429 --> 00:58:43.730
We only... Okay, here's the thing. Back in JP...

00:58:43.730 --> 00:58:47.130
Kat, you're old enough for this, too. All three

00:58:47.130 --> 00:58:48.010
of us are actually older than this. I'm older

00:58:48.010 --> 00:58:50.530
than JP. I know, but I'm just saying all three

00:58:50.530 --> 00:58:54.010
of us are older than this. So, JP, you're old

00:58:54.010 --> 00:58:57.730
enough to remember this. Shut up. So, back when

00:58:57.730 --> 00:59:03.880
WWE... Raw and WCW Nitro both ran, right? So

00:59:03.880 --> 00:59:07.239
cool. You had two hours on Monday night for both

00:59:07.239 --> 00:59:10.980
shows. This is before SmackDown and before Thunder.

00:59:11.139 --> 00:59:13.440
So you had two hours on every Monday night, an

00:59:13.440 --> 00:59:15.900
hour on Saturday, and an hour on Sunday for both

00:59:15.900 --> 00:59:19.320
for WCW and for WWE, right? That's four hours

00:59:19.320 --> 00:59:21.860
a week. That wasn't bad. Then I dropped another

00:59:21.860 --> 00:59:24.300
two hours a week on Thursdays. Okay, we're up

00:59:24.300 --> 00:59:26.880
to six hours a week. Then Raw went to three hours.

00:59:27.019 --> 00:59:28.800
Then Nitro went to three hours. It's certainly

00:59:28.800 --> 00:59:31.480
a little ridiculous. Then they added more shows

00:59:31.480 --> 00:59:33.980
on Saturday and more shows on Sunday. Then you

00:59:33.980 --> 00:59:35.559
got pay -per -views. All of a sudden, we're up

00:59:35.559 --> 00:59:38.179
to 20 hours of wrestling a week. I love wrestling.

00:59:39.019 --> 00:59:43.000
Do not get it twisted. I do. There's a line.

00:59:43.460 --> 00:59:46.840
I ain't got time to watch all this shit. Let's

00:59:46.840 --> 00:59:50.460
take now. We got Raw, SmackDown. You got TNA.

00:59:50.659 --> 00:59:54.039
You got AEW. You got what? Four shows for AEW?

00:59:54.539 --> 00:59:59.179
You got raw money. NXT Tuesdays, AEW Wednesday,

00:59:59.539 --> 01:00:02.039
TNA Thursday, Friday Night Smackdown Friday.

01:00:02.820 --> 01:00:05.519
Saturday for pay -per -views and Sunday for pay

01:00:05.519 --> 01:00:07.840
-per -views. Sunday's two -day PLEs. You got

01:00:07.840 --> 01:00:09.940
wrestling. That's wrestling seven days a week.

01:00:10.159 --> 01:00:12.980
Now, like I said, I have the FTW title hanging

01:00:12.980 --> 01:00:14.360
behind me. I have his demolition shrine right

01:00:14.360 --> 01:00:17.639
behind me. I love wrestling, but oh my god, there's

01:00:17.639 --> 01:00:22.539
two models. Holy shit. Breaking news. Breaking

01:00:22.539 --> 01:00:25.769
news. Look who decided to show up to fucking

01:00:25.769 --> 01:00:32.670
work. Who the fuck is that guy? Later. What are

01:00:32.670 --> 01:00:35.869
you guys talking about? Way too much wrestling

01:00:35.869 --> 01:00:41.570
on TV right now. Samuel Matthews almost a year

01:00:41.570 --> 01:00:46.210
finally decided that he was good enough for the

01:00:46.210 --> 01:00:53.780
podcast. No, see, what you don't realize is In

01:00:53.780 --> 01:00:56.000
my contract it states I can just come and go

01:00:56.000 --> 01:00:58.400
as I please, do what I want, show up when I want.

01:00:59.199 --> 01:01:03.460
We signed contracts? Wait a minute. Shut the

01:01:03.460 --> 01:01:08.559
fuck up. They're not supposed to know this. I'll

01:01:08.559 --> 01:01:11.559
come to your house again. Alright, that's it.

01:01:11.960 --> 01:01:16.059
This requires the new shit. I'm signing my resignation.

01:01:16.480 --> 01:01:18.659
Hey, wait, wait, wait. You got a shot over there?

01:01:19.699 --> 01:01:23.679
Stop fiddling with your shit. Whoever's doing

01:01:23.679 --> 01:01:31.639
that. My bad. Welcome back, holy shit. I know,

01:01:31.639 --> 01:01:37.780
dude. It's nice to be back. It's nice to have

01:01:37.780 --> 01:01:41.480
a space again and everything to be able to navigate

01:01:41.480 --> 01:01:45.599
doing things like this. You sound like you have

01:01:45.599 --> 01:01:51.250
a cold. No, no. Right now... Just the kids are,

01:01:51.269 --> 01:01:54.050
you know, kids sleeping and all that. I don't

01:01:54.050 --> 01:01:57.690
want to be too loud. You know, me not be too

01:01:57.690 --> 01:01:59.989
loud. I know it's crazy. Oh, my God. Are we going

01:01:59.989 --> 01:02:02.090
to get a Samuel Matthews hot take tonight? Oh,

01:02:02.090 --> 01:02:08.449
don't worry. We have something that we need to

01:02:08.449 --> 01:02:18.150
discuss. Oh, no. There is something we absolutely

01:02:18.150 --> 01:02:28.650
need. need to discuss. So... No, I understand,

01:02:28.869 --> 01:02:34.650
but I'm being rudely interrupted by this asshole.

01:02:37.670 --> 01:02:46.070
So... Yeah, I'm back. Doing the podcast. We see

01:02:46.070 --> 01:02:49.889
that. So... You thought you were going to get

01:02:49.889 --> 01:02:52.630
rid of me. It's been a year, roughly. I've been

01:02:52.630 --> 01:02:54.610
here and there. I've been gone for as long as

01:02:54.610 --> 01:02:57.469
I've been on the pod. Yeah, you thought there

01:02:57.469 --> 01:03:02.130
was a correlation. I've moved it. Oh, God. We're

01:03:02.130 --> 01:03:05.570
just... Oh, God. Oh, God. Where's your shots?

01:03:05.690 --> 01:03:07.349
You know, we're all out here bringing the fucking

01:03:07.349 --> 01:03:12.869
shots out. He's fixed up the glass. I guarantee

01:03:12.869 --> 01:03:14.630
the glass is going to boost it. I guarantee you

01:03:14.630 --> 01:03:22.820
that shit. I do have to ask, Alan Prophet's trying

01:03:22.820 --> 01:03:26.059
to steal your shit. No, he's not. Completely

01:03:26.059 --> 01:03:29.000
different. Co -leader's completely different

01:03:29.000 --> 01:03:31.800
than co -leader? No, what he's doing is completely

01:03:31.800 --> 01:03:35.159
different than what I'm doing. I can explain

01:03:35.159 --> 01:03:37.440
it to you if you would like. I ain't got the

01:03:37.440 --> 01:03:41.420
time. No, it's super simple. It's super simple.

01:03:41.679 --> 01:03:50.269
You see, you see, Prophet believes that he's

01:03:50.269 --> 01:03:57.530
the way to salvation, right? So there's kind

01:03:57.530 --> 01:03:59.929
of a religion, you know, he's the savior of the

01:03:59.929 --> 01:04:03.650
whole nine yards. Now with me, I'm just the creator.

01:04:04.170 --> 01:04:07.989
And what that means and what the pathway is here

01:04:07.989 --> 01:04:13.570
for is it's for people to, how do I put this?

01:04:14.050 --> 01:04:19.090
Chase what they really want. Maybe their deepest,

01:04:19.130 --> 01:04:22.289
darkest fantasies. I mean, their deepest, darkest

01:04:22.289 --> 01:04:26.630
desires. You know, all I'm saying, shut up. Don't

01:04:26.630 --> 01:04:29.570
talk. Don't talk over me. You've been gone for

01:04:29.570 --> 01:04:34.349
a year, so people probably don't know this, that

01:04:34.349 --> 01:04:38.469
you decided way back when, when you walked out

01:04:38.469 --> 01:04:43.550
on our match. I played Far Cry 5. You decided

01:04:43.550 --> 01:04:48.239
that you wanted to start your own cult. and bring

01:04:48.239 --> 01:04:51.079
in these wrestlers like Lee Miller. It's not

01:04:51.079 --> 01:04:55.960
a cult. It's not a... It looks like a cult. It

01:04:55.960 --> 01:04:59.340
sounds like a cult. It's a cult. What? No. What

01:04:59.340 --> 01:05:07.739
I do... What I do is I help people become who

01:05:07.739 --> 01:05:14.619
they really want to be. I help them... Chase

01:05:14.619 --> 01:05:17.539
what they really want. Maybe that they're a little

01:05:17.539 --> 01:05:24.360
too afraid to Actually chase I'm just saying

01:05:24.360 --> 01:05:26.920
yeah. Well, you know JP you have the attention

01:05:26.920 --> 01:05:42.440
span of a copy so You look like a man child somehow

01:05:42.440 --> 01:05:46.309
you look 70 and you look four at the same time,

01:05:46.369 --> 01:05:48.630
and I'm still trying to figure out how that's

01:05:48.630 --> 01:05:52.590
possible. Him or me? I was about to actually

01:05:52.590 --> 01:05:54.929
give you some actual credit here about four seconds

01:05:54.929 --> 01:05:58.409
ago. No, no, no, no, no. JP. JP looks like he

01:05:58.409 --> 01:06:05.389
is a man baby. We're not doing this on the podcast

01:06:05.389 --> 01:06:10.309
tonight, for fuck's sake. This hurts me to say.

01:06:10.469 --> 01:06:12.369
This hurts me to say. I'm going to give Sammy

01:06:12.369 --> 01:06:14.199
Matthews some credit. Because he went Guppy,

01:06:14.320 --> 01:06:16.280
not Goldfish. Goldfish actually had a good memory.

01:06:17.159 --> 01:06:24.059
How do you feel that Drake Lovecraft and Lee

01:06:24.059 --> 01:06:26.539
Miller could win a title, tag title, but you

01:06:26.539 --> 01:06:31.340
couldn't? Under my tutelage? You weren't even

01:06:31.340 --> 01:06:35.739
there. Right, but they took what I gave them.

01:06:35.980 --> 01:06:41.940
Look, all I'm saying is did either of you two

01:06:42.440 --> 01:06:46.099
Big Cat or Dylan Nix would tag gold with Lovecraft,

01:06:46.320 --> 01:06:49.820
but Lovecraft wins gold with me, so therefore,

01:06:50.239 --> 01:06:57.179
therefore, all I'm saying, all I'm saying, hold

01:06:57.179 --> 01:07:01.639
on, hold on, hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold

01:07:01.639 --> 01:07:04.659
on, hold on. I'm going to even go a step further

01:07:04.659 --> 01:07:12.019
and say, name a more successful year. in the

01:07:12.019 --> 01:07:17.139
state of Maine for a tag team or a group than

01:07:17.139 --> 01:07:21.679
the pathway? I mean, technically, the Wild. We

01:07:21.679 --> 01:07:25.019
were doing pretty good for a throwback to like

01:07:25.019 --> 01:07:30.320
10 years ago. Did y 'all win six tag titles in

01:07:30.320 --> 01:07:33.480
a year? If I didn't step away, we probably would

01:07:33.480 --> 01:07:41.119
have. I'm just saying. And then look at this

01:07:41.119 --> 01:07:44.099
guy. This guy on the right here went and did

01:07:44.099 --> 01:07:46.619
his own thing and won how many titles? Left,

01:07:46.619 --> 01:07:50.179
whatever. It's near my right. I'm just saying,

01:07:50.320 --> 01:07:55.780
you guys can hate as much as you want of what

01:07:55.780 --> 01:07:58.420
the pathway brings and what Samuel Matthews brings,

01:07:58.780 --> 01:08:05.840
but you can't deny the success. The success is

01:08:05.840 --> 01:08:12.550
there. The statistics are there. I'm not joking.

01:08:12.610 --> 01:08:14.130
How many of those titles have you won clean?

01:08:14.369 --> 01:08:16.270
I'm getting there, but I'm not joking. Listen,

01:08:16.449 --> 01:08:19.710
we can win them clean. Like I said, at Crown

01:08:19.710 --> 01:08:22.510
of Maine, and I made very clear. At Crown of

01:08:22.510 --> 01:08:24.430
Maine, you had a grandmother try to... Hold on.

01:08:24.449 --> 01:08:29.100
Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. Listen. Yes. And I

01:08:29.100 --> 01:08:31.699
addressed that. Did I not? Ma 'am, please. Ma

01:08:31.699 --> 01:08:35.279
'am. Let go. Ma 'am. Sorry. Sorry. Just to break

01:08:35.279 --> 01:08:40.359
completely. Did I? Listen. Listen. Did I not

01:08:40.359 --> 01:08:42.920
address that, though? Did I not address that

01:08:42.920 --> 01:08:45.939
when I spoke at last time at Crown of Maine?

01:08:45.979 --> 01:08:49.539
I believe it was Shocktober. Oh, you mean where

01:08:49.539 --> 01:08:52.760
I won the Rissa County Championship? Congratulations.

01:08:53.680 --> 01:08:57.750
You know. She's not in the car, I think. You

01:08:57.750 --> 01:09:01.149
show everything else but leave the fucking championships

01:09:01.149 --> 01:09:08.029
in the car. But hold on. Hold on. Hold on. I'm

01:09:08.029 --> 01:09:11.090
not finished yet. But I made it clear that we

01:09:11.090 --> 01:09:18.329
don't need to cheat. We just like doing it. Like,

01:09:18.489 --> 01:09:23.170
we just enjoy it. So anyway. I forgot the presence

01:09:23.170 --> 01:09:26.859
of Samuel Matthews on this podcast. You forgot,

01:09:26.979 --> 01:09:31.659
huh? Yeah. It's been so long. I'm like, oh yeah,

01:09:31.720 --> 01:09:34.579
this is why he's never around. The piece is nice

01:09:34.579 --> 01:09:38.859
while it lasted. When I come on, viewership goes

01:09:38.859 --> 01:09:43.500
up. I'm looking at your account right now. I

01:09:43.500 --> 01:09:45.800
don't think so, bro. It's because nobody knew

01:09:45.800 --> 01:09:54.500
I was coming. Listen, I know you. I know our

01:09:54.500 --> 01:10:01.460
handshake. All right. Take that thing off there,

01:10:01.539 --> 01:10:08.439
JP. Let me bump you up. You're quiet. Are we

01:10:08.439 --> 01:10:14.960
going to discuss the topic that I would like

01:10:14.960 --> 01:10:19.659
to discuss? We just talked about the IWX1000.

01:10:20.359 --> 01:10:21.979
None of us are on, by the way. We were going

01:10:21.979 --> 01:10:25.319
to get into John Cena winning the title, but

01:10:25.319 --> 01:10:31.279
now we can't see Samuel Matthews. He's blurred

01:10:31.279 --> 01:10:35.319
the fuck out. Hold on. I got that one. Give me

01:10:35.319 --> 01:10:42.260
a sec. I don't know. You blended into the background

01:10:42.260 --> 01:10:45.859
for a second. I thought you were going as well.

01:10:48.640 --> 01:10:50.880
I know it's the wrong version, but this is the

01:10:50.880 --> 01:10:55.199
nice version. I have a WCW -type team title ball,

01:10:55.279 --> 01:10:59.819
but it's in a storage bin in my shed. Um, so...

01:10:59.819 --> 01:11:02.560
I just keep reaching over and grabbing him. Let's

01:11:02.560 --> 01:11:07.119
focus. My wife walked in, and she's like, I got

01:11:07.119 --> 01:11:12.510
you French fries. Fucking high as a kite. We're

01:11:12.510 --> 01:11:14.649
not focusing, are we? No, we're not. Anyways,

01:11:14.649 --> 01:11:16.789
go ahead. We're too focused right now at this

01:11:16.789 --> 01:11:21.710
point. Have you met us? No, I... We're off the

01:11:21.710 --> 01:11:25.029
rails. No, because I have a very serious topic

01:11:25.029 --> 01:11:27.930
that I want to discuss because I want to hit

01:11:27.930 --> 01:11:32.590
my spot, okay? So if somebody can cue that up...

01:11:32.590 --> 01:11:35.010
Hold on, hold on, hold on. Zooli, do the thing.

01:11:37.130 --> 01:11:39.619
Cat! Oh, fuck, that's me. Believe in the thing.

01:11:39.960 --> 01:11:42.939
I'm talking to my wife. Believe in the thing.

01:11:43.600 --> 01:11:51.359
She just got home. I'm talking to my wife. There.

01:11:58.140 --> 01:12:04.560
All right. So today, I want to bring up, we're

01:12:04.560 --> 01:12:06.279
going to take a little different approach with

01:12:06.279 --> 01:12:10.220
Samuel Matthews hot take going forward. I am

01:12:10.220 --> 01:12:13.239
going to be bringing controversial topics and

01:12:13.239 --> 01:12:16.220
a little bit of different kinds of discussions

01:12:16.220 --> 01:12:22.659
that I want everybody's input on. No, it's okay.

01:12:22.720 --> 01:12:24.859
He wants to be mean. He wants to be disrespectful.

01:12:24.939 --> 01:12:32.079
I'm going to beat his ass December 6th. Oh, I

01:12:32.079 --> 01:12:39.579
forgot about that. Yeah. Anyway. So anyway. I

01:12:39.579 --> 01:12:49.039
want to talk about the topic of losing and protecting

01:12:49.039 --> 01:12:54.180
your character and protecting your whole shenanigans.

01:12:54.779 --> 01:12:58.939
So my first question is, do wins and losses matter?

01:13:00.579 --> 01:13:03.220
So I'm going to be 100 % honest with this. Yes

01:13:03.220 --> 01:13:07.359
and no. As someone who took a lot of L's in the

01:13:07.359 --> 01:13:09.560
first two years of the career, I don't believe

01:13:09.560 --> 01:13:13.140
wins and losses. We all know what this sport

01:13:13.140 --> 01:13:17.479
is, so no. Wins and losses don't matter. The

01:13:17.479 --> 01:13:23.020
storyline does. You can look at Zack Ryder's

01:13:23.020 --> 01:13:26.579
partner, Brian Myers. He lost two years straight,

01:13:26.699 --> 01:13:28.579
but that was the build -up to them winning the

01:13:28.579 --> 01:13:32.439
titles at WrestleMania, which is cool. They can

01:13:32.439 --> 01:13:35.260
matter, but at the same point, I don't think

01:13:35.260 --> 01:13:38.810
they do matter. Okay, let me ask you this. because

01:13:38.810 --> 01:13:40.789
it seems like everybody agrees that they don't

01:13:40.789 --> 01:13:45.029
matter, I'm going to follow up with the question

01:13:45.029 --> 01:13:50.710
of, when do they matter? I think they matter

01:13:50.710 --> 01:13:54.750
when you are on a, honestly, to build up to something.

01:13:54.869 --> 01:13:57.289
If you're building up to, like, say, you're the

01:13:57.289 --> 01:13:59.529
champion, keeping the belt, maybe losing it.

01:14:00.350 --> 01:14:02.970
Fuck, I'm going to use myself. I apologize, but

01:14:02.970 --> 01:14:05.550
it makes sense. When I was on the streak with

01:14:05.550 --> 01:14:08.399
the mainstay, championship i kept winning winning

01:14:08.399 --> 01:14:10.640
winning winning winning when joey beat me it

01:14:10.640 --> 01:14:12.939
meant something like oh you dropped the belt

01:14:12.939 --> 01:14:16.220
you know until until he decided no no no no stop

01:14:16.220 --> 01:14:18.399
we're not we're not going that far into it so

01:14:18.399 --> 01:14:25.640
but joey but the win itself meant something that

01:14:25.640 --> 01:14:32.859
doesn't matter right yeah think about that i

01:14:32.859 --> 01:14:38.210
was met did like my wins matter no no I'm not

01:14:38.210 --> 01:14:42.069
talking, you remove storyline. Because the only

01:14:42.069 --> 01:14:44.829
time a win can actually mean something is if

01:14:44.829 --> 01:14:49.710
it's in a storyline. If it's built, if there's

01:14:49.710 --> 01:14:52.569
a payoff necessarily to it. JP, you had something

01:14:52.569 --> 01:14:57.430
you wanted to say? I hate to say this, just for

01:14:57.430 --> 01:15:01.310
this moment of instance, but there's one way

01:15:01.310 --> 01:15:05.890
I could agree with this. With multiple reasons.

01:15:06.350 --> 01:15:11.029
I have had matches where I have lost that have

01:15:11.029 --> 01:15:17.850
looked better than me winning in certain scenarios.

01:15:18.149 --> 01:15:22.510
For example, I will take the most recent events

01:15:22.510 --> 01:15:26.130
that have occurred in my career. Me and Johnny

01:15:26.130 --> 01:15:30.770
Pierce tag teamed at MEW against Stormy Savage,

01:15:31.010 --> 01:15:34.010
and it was supposed to be... Donkey Boy Bandit.

01:15:34.890 --> 01:15:39.250
We may or may not have put a hurtin' on Donkey

01:15:39.250 --> 01:15:44.350
Boy. We may or may not have hurt him to the point

01:15:44.350 --> 01:15:47.109
that we made it a handicap match. But within

01:15:47.109 --> 01:15:50.989
all of that happening from the beginning of the

01:15:50.989 --> 01:15:55.890
show happening and having Donkey Boy get injured

01:15:55.890 --> 01:16:03.489
to it being a handicap match Stormy Savage still

01:16:03.489 --> 01:16:07.649
prevailed at the end of the night when all of

01:16:07.649 --> 01:16:10.949
the odds were beat against him completely, and

01:16:10.949 --> 01:16:13.750
he had a much better reaction than I know we

01:16:13.750 --> 01:16:16.590
would have gotten if we would have won. A little

01:16:16.590 --> 01:16:20.770
pull behind the curtain. Okay, so we pull that

01:16:20.770 --> 01:16:26.609
back behind the curtain. So we pull that back

01:16:26.609 --> 01:16:31.039
behind the curtain, but again... It's all dependent

01:16:31.039 --> 01:16:40.199
on storyline, right? So, like, storyline -wise,

01:16:40.319 --> 01:16:47.739
it made sense for Storm and Donkey to go over

01:16:47.739 --> 01:16:52.039
in that match, right? But would it have been

01:16:52.039 --> 01:16:59.760
wrong if you guys went over? I don't know if

01:16:59.760 --> 01:17:04.239
it would have been wrong. I think from a simple

01:17:04.239 --> 01:17:06.359
-minded standpoint, it would have been like,

01:17:06.460 --> 01:17:09.720
oh, they won because they had the numbers. That

01:17:09.720 --> 01:17:11.819
would have been the only reason why we would

01:17:11.819 --> 01:17:18.460
have won. I couldn't think of a more promising

01:17:18.460 --> 01:17:22.060
or a more convincing way of why we would have

01:17:22.060 --> 01:17:26.420
won that wouldn't have involved us outnumbering.

01:17:26.619 --> 01:17:29.739
Stormy Savage, whether it had been skill, whether

01:17:29.739 --> 01:17:34.779
it had been cunning, secret tactics. You were

01:17:34.779 --> 01:17:38.460
an actual tag team, and he was tagging with some

01:17:38.460 --> 01:17:41.739
rando guy, so I think you should have won. I

01:17:41.739 --> 01:17:45.119
mean... Technically, Stormy and Dunkey are an

01:17:45.119 --> 01:17:48.439
actual tag team. Okay, so... Dunkey wasn't there.

01:17:49.380 --> 01:17:54.220
So, let me stop this real quick, because I want

01:17:54.220 --> 01:17:58.590
to point something out here. So, the storyline

01:17:58.590 --> 01:18:01.510
that ended up happening was that Storm ended

01:18:01.510 --> 01:18:05.489
up overcoming the odds against JP and Johnny

01:18:05.489 --> 01:18:09.010
Pierce, and Dunkey ended up getting his comeuppance

01:18:09.010 --> 01:18:19.350
a little bit at the end. Right? Right? So, universally,

01:18:19.470 --> 01:18:27.359
can we say that that was the right choice? Sure.

01:18:27.640 --> 01:18:31.319
Because it's my experience, yes, I would. Okay,

01:18:31.399 --> 01:18:34.680
I'm going to take... I'm going to take... That

01:18:34.680 --> 01:18:39.380
wasn't the right choice. One more example. Hold

01:18:39.380 --> 01:18:42.000
on. I want to use your example that you currently

01:18:42.000 --> 01:18:46.199
have. Okay. So I want to go and I want to spin

01:18:46.199 --> 01:18:49.760
this and tell me if this also couldn't be a correct

01:18:49.760 --> 01:18:56.590
story. JP and... Johnny Pierce take out donkey

01:18:56.590 --> 01:19:01.149
boy bandit like they did forever and and then

01:19:01.149 --> 01:19:06.970
you go against storm and you absolutely obliterate

01:19:06.970 --> 01:19:10.449
him and just Underhanded tactics are grabbing

01:19:10.449 --> 01:19:13.270
his eyes. You're just just cheating to cheat

01:19:13.270 --> 01:19:16.750
and you absolutely put a boot beating on it You

01:19:16.750 --> 01:19:21.409
now have a new established vicious heel tag team

01:19:21.409 --> 01:19:25.590
in the tag team division. You have two guys who

01:19:25.590 --> 01:19:29.229
are now established as being extra vicious. They

01:19:29.229 --> 01:19:32.229
just took out one tag team member and then they

01:19:32.229 --> 01:19:34.829
just decided this guy thought he was going to

01:19:34.829 --> 01:19:39.229
be Superman and just got steamrolled. So now

01:19:39.229 --> 01:19:42.449
you have a whole new tag team in the tag team

01:19:42.449 --> 01:19:45.289
division who needs to be feared because they

01:19:45.289 --> 01:19:48.020
just took out. well -known donkey boy and storm

01:19:48.020 --> 01:19:55.560
who have a who have a history here at mew what

01:19:55.560 --> 01:20:02.680
about that story which one's right which one's

01:20:02.680 --> 01:20:05.380
wrong i mean it's just all i guess it just all

01:20:05.380 --> 01:20:08.239
depends on the fans perspective at that point

01:20:08.239 --> 01:20:13.500
yeah so therefore there has to be fans in the

01:20:13.500 --> 01:20:21.109
crowd to be so So therefore, we come... So therefore,

01:20:21.229 --> 01:20:33.789
we come to the idea that... We come to the idea

01:20:33.789 --> 01:20:42.270
that... The idea, in my opinion, the idea of

01:20:42.270 --> 01:20:45.729
someone deserving something in wrestling, whether

01:20:45.729 --> 01:20:48.710
they should win, lose, the booking decision,

01:20:49.029 --> 01:20:52.109
the whole nine yards, who should be booked. It's

01:20:52.109 --> 01:20:56.510
all subjective. It's all up to the person who's

01:20:56.510 --> 01:21:00.630
in charge. So that's just something to think

01:21:00.630 --> 01:21:03.869
about because we say we don't get fired up about

01:21:03.869 --> 01:21:06.949
wins and losses, but tell me one person who doesn't

01:21:06.949 --> 01:21:09.890
get a little charged up about, you know, if they

01:21:09.890 --> 01:21:13.149
find out they're losing to someone. Can I tag

01:21:13.149 --> 01:21:16.890
on to that one? Sure. That is something, yes,

01:21:16.909 --> 01:21:18.369
you are not. By the way, I'm going to look in

01:21:18.369 --> 01:21:19.970
weird spots. My camera is in a weird spot tonight.

01:21:21.529 --> 01:21:24.409
That is something I actually have to agree with

01:21:24.409 --> 01:21:26.390
because we do get sometimes fired up about like

01:21:26.390 --> 01:21:29.170
you go to a show and it's like, oh, you're losing

01:21:29.170 --> 01:21:33.350
this guy. Why? Well, because I booked it. Why?

01:21:34.170 --> 01:21:36.970
Because like sometimes like we look at our, like

01:21:36.970 --> 01:21:40.109
we think we know our spots. And like some of

01:21:40.109 --> 01:21:41.810
us do, some of us don't. And sometimes our spots

01:21:41.810 --> 01:21:43.630
are different from company to company. That happens,

01:21:43.750 --> 01:21:46.930
right? But every now and then you literally will

01:21:46.930 --> 01:21:50.350
ask why I'm doing this. And here's the thing.

01:21:50.930 --> 01:21:53.930
I've said it multiple times. I want to show up

01:21:53.930 --> 01:21:56.090
and do my job and have the best match I can.

01:21:56.189 --> 01:21:59.710
I don't care if I win or lose. Generally. But

01:21:59.710 --> 01:22:02.630
sometimes I just want a quick explanation. Especially

01:22:02.630 --> 01:22:05.510
if it doesn't make a... Say the month before

01:22:05.510 --> 01:22:07.729
I was here and I was like, I was super over and

01:22:07.729 --> 01:22:10.489
I won, blah, blah, blah. I don't mind if I lose

01:22:10.489 --> 01:22:13.319
next month, but it's like... Sometimes you just

01:22:13.319 --> 01:22:17.899
want a little bit of clarification. But... Does

01:22:17.899 --> 01:22:21.939
that make sense to everyone? No, it makes sense,

01:22:21.939 --> 01:22:26.020
but sometimes that clarification is just because

01:22:26.020 --> 01:22:28.520
they need somebody to lose. Oh, which is fine.

01:22:28.680 --> 01:22:32.039
Yeah. It's like, okay, Sam, I'll take this spot.

01:22:33.039 --> 01:22:35.960
We were going to work with Gino, not Gino, Skip

01:22:35.960 --> 01:22:39.439
a couple months ago, right? And... say larry

01:22:39.439 --> 01:22:41.399
came up to us and larry's like all right uh dylan

01:22:41.399 --> 01:22:43.279
i need you to lose to sam i'm like i'd be like

01:22:43.279 --> 01:22:46.939
all right you know cool whatever you know i don't

01:22:46.939 --> 01:22:49.319
i generally don't care but sometimes it's like

01:22:49.319 --> 01:22:51.500
you know you've lost this guy six times in a

01:22:51.500 --> 01:22:57.159
row you know maybe give him a win so i think

01:22:57.159 --> 01:23:00.880
no no no i get what you're saying but i think

01:23:00.880 --> 01:23:07.680
sometimes we try to make More out of things than

01:23:07.680 --> 01:23:12.439
it really needs to be. So, for instance, sometimes

01:23:12.439 --> 01:23:17.420
we need to remember that a show is just a one

01:23:17.420 --> 01:23:22.680
-off show. It's not anything storyline -based.

01:23:22.939 --> 01:23:26.560
And it doesn't mean that the company doesn't

01:23:26.560 --> 01:23:30.859
have storylines in other places, maybe. But in

01:23:30.859 --> 01:23:33.420
that particular place, and you find this with

01:23:33.420 --> 01:23:36.359
charity shows and fair shows, there's not necessarily

01:23:36.359 --> 01:23:40.140
a story. It's a one -off show, so it doesn't

01:23:40.140 --> 01:23:45.340
make a difference if you can lose 85 times because

01:23:45.340 --> 01:23:47.840
you're going to lose 85 times in front of a different

01:23:47.840 --> 01:23:50.359
audience. Actually, a great example of that was

01:23:50.359 --> 01:23:54.720
this Thursday. We worked at Danny Strides. I

01:23:54.720 --> 01:23:58.380
took on Stormy Savage. And Storm's... normally

01:23:58.380 --> 01:24:01.739
a good guy. And he was not the good guy this

01:24:01.739 --> 01:24:05.079
time. And we just had a fun, stupid match. And

01:24:05.079 --> 01:24:07.319
that's not because he just took a shot at Carmilla.

01:24:08.279 --> 01:24:11.819
But yeah, no. But literally, I get that because

01:24:11.819 --> 01:24:13.619
especially, say, fair shows. We're going to go

01:24:13.619 --> 01:24:17.479
fair shows. I've literally worked a fair show

01:24:17.479 --> 01:24:20.739
where I've worked two shows in the same day,

01:24:20.880 --> 01:24:24.340
lost the first one, but won the second one. I

01:24:24.340 --> 01:24:31.600
mean, All I'm saying is I think the wrestling

01:24:31.600 --> 01:24:36.140
business improves. There was a tweet by Bear

01:24:36.140 --> 01:24:40.319
Bronson. Can somebody pull that up real quick?

01:24:40.479 --> 01:24:44.539
Ready for the show, Bear Bronson. While we pull

01:24:44.539 --> 01:24:48.439
that up, Big Cat, while you pull that up, another

01:24:48.439 --> 01:24:51.640
thing I want to get out of the way as far as

01:24:51.640 --> 01:24:58.410
your perspective of his winning or losing. important.

01:24:58.410 --> 01:25:02.189
A throwback to... Hold on real quick. I got to

01:25:02.189 --> 01:25:03.630
laugh. I was going to look at Bear Bronson. I

01:25:03.630 --> 01:25:05.310
was like, wait, I have Joe as a friend on Facebook.

01:25:05.810 --> 01:25:11.229
So, I can read it. I can read it. It's fine.

01:25:11.369 --> 01:25:14.710
I have it right here. I got to find it. Go ahead.

01:25:15.130 --> 01:25:21.750
So, it read... This was, I believe, in response

01:25:21.750 --> 01:25:25.819
to the Nixon -Newall Stuff that's been going

01:25:25.819 --> 01:25:28.359
on. I'm fading out again. Just bear with me.

01:25:28.359 --> 01:25:31.520
It'll come back. Nixon Newell stuff going on.

01:25:31.680 --> 01:25:34.100
What's that? What's going on with the Phoenix

01:25:34.100 --> 01:25:40.319
or no Nixon Newell. I got you. The fact that

01:25:40.319 --> 01:25:43.159
they like walk her and her tag team partner walked

01:25:43.159 --> 01:25:48.119
out of their match. Can I, can I, can I go, I'm

01:25:48.119 --> 01:25:50.239
going to add a quick point on top of that. I

01:25:50.239 --> 01:25:51.800
get where they come from. I get where they came

01:25:51.800 --> 01:25:53.779
from. Because they walked up and they're like,

01:25:53.880 --> 01:25:55.939
look, we don't care. This is what I've heard.

01:25:57.840 --> 01:25:59.539
They're like, look, we don't care we're jobbing.

01:25:59.600 --> 01:26:03.000
We really don't. They wanted to win. Of course,

01:26:03.079 --> 01:26:06.359
especially on national TV. They were pissed off

01:26:06.359 --> 01:26:09.140
they were losing in three minutes. I get it because

01:26:09.140 --> 01:26:15.600
I've been pissed off too. Why am I waiting for

01:26:15.600 --> 01:26:19.220
a chat to pop up now? Nick, shut the fuck up.

01:26:19.739 --> 01:26:24.859
Nope, nope, nope. This is perfect. Because this

01:26:24.859 --> 01:26:32.500
goes into the tweet. Or what he posted. While

01:26:32.500 --> 01:26:36.659
I've recently discussed being unhappy with character

01:26:36.659 --> 01:26:41.060
-slash -gimmick -related stuff, fact is, losing

01:26:41.060 --> 01:26:43.720
matches is what kept me a paying job for four

01:26:43.720 --> 01:26:47.960
-plus years. Even my two best matches of 2025.

01:26:49.020 --> 01:26:54.159
I lost. The effort you put in to your performance,

01:26:54.399 --> 01:26:58.260
bell to bell, regardless of the outcome, is greater

01:26:58.260 --> 01:27:03.159
than anything. Was one of those matches you lost

01:27:03.159 --> 01:27:06.479
to Danny DeMonto? I'm curious. No, I think the

01:27:06.479 --> 01:27:10.760
one was probably Matt Tremont, their death match.

01:27:11.819 --> 01:27:22.340
This then leads me to... really say like also

01:27:22.340 --> 01:27:26.840
Nixon knew well before appearing on AEW was bitching

01:27:26.840 --> 01:27:29.560
and moaning online that she hadn't been receiving

01:27:29.560 --> 01:27:37.479
any bookings and she didn't understand why then

01:27:37.479 --> 01:27:42.260
she gets the AEW stuff and then walks out of

01:27:42.260 --> 01:27:48.180
it so my question then is If you can't get yourself

01:27:48.180 --> 01:27:57.079
over in three minutes. Well, if it's a job thing,

01:27:57.239 --> 01:27:59.500
you're not going to be getting yourself over

01:27:59.500 --> 01:28:03.739
at all in three minutes. Because the job or what,

01:28:03.819 --> 01:28:06.439
maybe you have maybe a spot and the rest goes,

01:28:06.560 --> 01:28:10.260
offense goes to them. Against an already strongly

01:28:10.260 --> 01:28:15.180
established tag team in TJ. Yeah, you didn't

01:28:15.180 --> 01:28:19.220
even do who's Nixon new wall big cat Let's take

01:28:19.220 --> 01:28:27.960
Tegan Nox. No. No, I didn't ask you No So, so

01:28:27.960 --> 01:28:33.279
so this is this is the point is some people call

01:28:33.279 --> 01:28:38.279
it the WWE brain rock Where because they were

01:28:38.279 --> 01:28:41.859
in the WWE they feel like they may They should

01:28:41.859 --> 01:28:45.319
get more money so when they get out, they go

01:28:45.319 --> 01:28:50.000
and put their rates way too high. And then they

01:28:50.000 --> 01:28:51.899
don't get booked because they overguess their

01:28:51.899 --> 01:28:54.920
star powers. I don't know if this is the case,

01:28:55.020 --> 01:28:58.039
but the point I'm making is if you go online

01:28:58.039 --> 01:29:01.460
and publicly complain that you aren't getting

01:29:01.460 --> 01:29:03.720
bookings and then you walk out of a booking,

01:29:03.840 --> 01:29:06.720
what does that show other bookers? Don't book

01:29:06.720 --> 01:29:08.939
them. That's not the point you were getting.

01:29:09.060 --> 01:29:10.699
How do you get yourself over in three minutes?

01:29:10.739 --> 01:29:12.800
The reality is you don't if you're jobbing. You

01:29:12.800 --> 01:29:15.779
do. You can absolutely do it. No, you're not.

01:29:15.899 --> 01:29:18.359
Not if you're jobbing. The point as a jobber

01:29:18.359 --> 01:29:22.640
is to get the other person over. Not you. It

01:29:22.640 --> 01:29:28.140
wasn't even a job. They had three minutes. But

01:29:28.140 --> 01:29:31.039
I'm saying they said he was jobbing out to them.

01:29:31.180 --> 01:29:34.539
You just said that. I didn't say they were jobbing

01:29:34.539 --> 01:29:39.210
out. You just did. I technically said they're

01:29:39.210 --> 01:29:45.689
jobbing out. Somebody said it. I feel like I'm

01:29:45.689 --> 01:29:50.750
listening to Matt Hardy's version 1 fucking entrance.

01:29:51.069 --> 01:29:55.670
If they weren't jobbing out, then yes, you could

01:29:55.670 --> 01:30:01.489
still not getting over, but you could still do

01:30:01.489 --> 01:30:06.829
it as a good performance. here and there, whatever.

01:30:07.750 --> 01:30:10.069
Walking out of any promotion, even if you're

01:30:10.069 --> 01:30:12.750
formerly from the WWE, whatever, I think it's

01:30:12.750 --> 01:30:15.909
just a bad taste unless you are doing a, like,

01:30:15.989 --> 01:30:19.470
if you're a big top, but then again, that goes

01:30:19.470 --> 01:30:22.149
to your point of people having the WWE rot, but

01:30:22.149 --> 01:30:25.770
I'm saying, like, my problem is if you're on

01:30:25.770 --> 01:30:28.310
the indies, like, this is why I didn't like the

01:30:28.310 --> 01:30:30.989
dark matches televised for AEW, even though it

01:30:30.989 --> 01:30:34.069
was awesome. You have Channing Thomas, BRG, and

01:30:34.069 --> 01:30:35.590
I can't remember who else was it. It might have

01:30:35.590 --> 01:30:38.949
been LoveDoug that did a dark match against three.

01:30:38.949 --> 01:30:41.510
Four minutes and lost to Matt Hardy, and they

01:30:41.510 --> 01:30:43.689
came out and went. Because Brett told me the

01:30:43.689 --> 01:30:46.590
story. Brett was like, they walked out a minute

01:30:46.590 --> 01:30:48.750
before the match and went, okay, so you guys

01:30:48.750 --> 01:30:51.510
had 15, we're cutting you down to six, and Matt's

01:30:51.510 --> 01:30:53.810
going over. So Brett was like, well, we just

01:30:53.810 --> 01:30:57.569
let Matt Hardy get his shit in. Right, and that's

01:30:57.569 --> 01:30:59.869
the thing. It's like these are the top guys.

01:31:00.750 --> 01:31:03.649
On the industry in Maine right now, including

01:31:03.649 --> 01:31:06.989
Gen Times, BRG, they were doing a big fucking

01:31:06.989 --> 01:31:09.710
thing for Limitless at that time. And they were

01:31:09.710 --> 01:31:12.590
basically jobbed out. Yeah, that's when they

01:31:12.590 --> 01:31:15.390
were prestigious, right? Yeah. Right. But let

01:31:15.390 --> 01:31:18.189
me ask you this, because then this also translates

01:31:18.189 --> 01:31:25.329
to something else. The casual fan isn't going

01:31:25.329 --> 01:31:29.520
to necessarily understand. They're looking so

01:31:29.520 --> 01:31:33.140
it doesn't but it doesn't but it doesn't matter

01:31:33.140 --> 01:31:37.079
it doesn't matter because these guys Right at

01:31:37.079 --> 01:31:39.939
that point in time. They were big in New England

01:31:39.939 --> 01:31:45.939
Brett hadn't gone to MLW yet. No Channing Thomas

01:31:45.939 --> 01:31:49.300
hadn't necessarily gone into Dreamwave and done

01:31:49.300 --> 01:31:52.159
all the stuff that he had at that point. That

01:31:52.159 --> 01:31:55.960
point, no. Okay, so these guys are brought in

01:31:55.960 --> 01:31:59.239
and they understand their role that they're brought

01:31:59.239 --> 01:32:03.079
in to put over somebody else. That is a different

01:32:03.079 --> 01:32:11.460
situation entirely. That's not jobbing. Like,

01:32:11.460 --> 01:32:15.020
everybody throws the word. jobbing around a lot.

01:32:15.100 --> 01:32:19.699
Oh, if I lost, I'd job. But what if... They didn't

01:32:19.699 --> 01:32:22.319
have any offense in. That's what I consider jobbing.

01:32:22.340 --> 01:32:24.579
If you were going out there and the person that

01:32:24.579 --> 01:32:28.260
you were standing across from you is doing everything

01:32:28.260 --> 01:32:31.760
and you do literally no offense, you are jobbing

01:32:31.760 --> 01:32:36.880
to them. So the term jobber comes from the idea

01:32:36.880 --> 01:32:42.470
that losing is their job. So the only thing that

01:32:42.470 --> 01:32:45.949
they do, and the term jobber came from is the

01:32:45.949 --> 01:32:53.430
idea that all they do is lose. That term gets

01:32:53.430 --> 01:32:57.310
thrown around so aggressively. I see it more

01:32:57.310 --> 01:33:00.310
as your job is to get the other person over.

01:33:00.970 --> 01:33:03.369
You're jobbing to the other person to make them

01:33:03.369 --> 01:33:08.850
look good. That's the way I see it. No, that's

01:33:08.850 --> 01:33:13.310
dude, that's that's doing the job for somebody

01:33:13.310 --> 01:33:20.329
but that's not job JP's being quiet over here

01:33:20.329 --> 01:33:24.810
giving any two in active fucking tweets right

01:33:24.810 --> 01:33:34.590
now All I'm saying is people care way more about

01:33:34.590 --> 01:33:39.529
wins and losses than they want to admit. People

01:33:39.529 --> 01:33:42.350
get way more butthurt about things that really

01:33:42.350 --> 01:33:48.850
don't matter. To go back to that, from my perspective,

01:33:49.229 --> 01:33:55.329
we'll take a little time lap back to 2022. I

01:33:55.329 --> 01:33:59.649
was in this whole fucking deathmatch realm of

01:33:59.649 --> 01:34:02.529
doing shit, doing a bunch of fucking hardcore

01:34:02.529 --> 01:34:07.319
shit, and did a lot of fucking shit. I basically

01:34:07.319 --> 01:34:10.520
got to a point where I said, fuck it. I don't

01:34:10.520 --> 01:34:13.479
give a fuck what I do. I just want to have fucking

01:34:13.479 --> 01:34:17.359
fun, do whatever the fuck it is with people that

01:34:17.359 --> 01:34:19.680
I never imagined that I'd fucking do it with.

01:34:20.819 --> 01:34:25.979
So here we are, 2022. I started this summer.

01:34:26.220 --> 01:34:30.420
It started as a summer of violence sort of thing,

01:34:30.500 --> 01:34:33.039
and it ended up spanning up until the end of

01:34:33.039 --> 01:34:35.750
the year. And basically, it was just an entire

01:34:35.750 --> 01:34:42.850
rest of the year of different scenarios of ultraviolence.

01:34:42.949 --> 01:34:46.829
So I had the opportunity to share the ring with

01:34:46.829 --> 01:34:56.689
guys like Slade, guys like Bam Sullivan, guys

01:34:56.689 --> 01:35:07.729
like Akira. Over those times, I lost all of those

01:35:07.729 --> 01:35:13.750
matches. I took the pin in all of those matches

01:35:13.750 --> 01:35:18.850
that I wanted to do. It's something that I love

01:35:18.850 --> 01:35:25.090
to do. The match type that I favorited, I had

01:35:25.090 --> 01:35:29.430
control of all of those matches happening, and

01:35:29.430 --> 01:35:34.369
I still lost. But the reason behind those matches

01:35:34.369 --> 01:35:38.250
was so that in the endgame, my goal was to face

01:35:38.250 --> 01:35:40.770
one of the most decorated deathmatch wrestlers

01:35:40.770 --> 01:35:44.109
in the U .S. And that came on. That didn't end

01:35:44.109 --> 01:35:46.689
up happening. So because that didn't end up happening,

01:35:46.850 --> 01:35:51.430
the end result of the storyline that involved

01:35:51.430 --> 01:35:56.289
a very conniving, evil fucking person, one in

01:35:56.289 --> 01:36:01.199
Mr. Scotty Ceridi, he... Was that the one with

01:36:01.199 --> 01:36:06.979
the screwdriver? He managed all of the people

01:36:06.979 --> 01:36:11.319
that I had taken on and had lost to. And eventually

01:36:11.319 --> 01:36:13.880
he was going to give me what I wanted because

01:36:13.880 --> 01:36:16.659
he felt bad for how many times I had lost to

01:36:16.659 --> 01:36:19.439
all of these people. And then when that time

01:36:19.439 --> 01:36:23.760
came to be, shit had happened. So he had to scramble

01:36:23.760 --> 01:36:27.479
and come up with a last minute opponent. And

01:36:27.479 --> 01:36:29.859
it ended up being somebody that I knew very well.

01:36:30.399 --> 01:36:33.680
And in the end game, after all of the shit that

01:36:33.680 --> 01:36:36.439
I'd gone through for the entirety of almost six

01:36:36.439 --> 01:36:40.779
months, I ended up prevailing at the very end.

01:36:42.060 --> 01:36:46.800
And did I think that that win was worth it? No.

01:36:47.399 --> 01:36:50.899
I didn't think that. I think all of my losses

01:36:50.899 --> 01:36:55.659
meant more to me than that one win did. Because

01:36:55.659 --> 01:36:58.680
in the event of that one win happening, I still

01:36:58.680 --> 01:37:03.100
got to go on. and perform at the company in which

01:37:03.100 --> 01:37:06.699
matt tremont ran at h2o i went down to jersey

01:37:06.699 --> 01:37:11.619
and got to show off all the crazy okay with people

01:37:11.619 --> 01:37:15.000
with a guy that he had trained and i had gotten

01:37:15.000 --> 01:37:17.880
to perform in the match that i had specialized

01:37:17.880 --> 01:37:24.159
in and i jobbed to that dead not job but like

01:37:24.159 --> 01:37:26.380
i definitely i took the pinfall of that match

01:37:26.380 --> 01:37:28.300
here's the thing though there's a difference

01:37:28.300 --> 01:37:30.939
though with that though You were, you were happy

01:37:30.939 --> 01:37:35.039
to be there. I was happy regardless of my professional.

01:37:35.579 --> 01:37:38.920
Yeah. In your professional that I understand

01:37:38.920 --> 01:37:41.899
the WWE spot where they would come in and then

01:37:41.899 --> 01:37:44.539
expect this, but however you would, it, it, it

01:37:44.539 --> 01:37:50.539
comes more of a, where are you on WWE? When you

01:37:50.539 --> 01:37:54.359
look rock level, are you a Randy Orton level

01:37:54.359 --> 01:38:00.229
or are you fucking, uh, Damien Sandow level.

01:38:00.529 --> 01:38:04.829
Right. But the idea behind the WWE Brain Rock

01:38:04.829 --> 01:38:08.529
is the idea that they don't realize... Sorry.

01:38:08.689 --> 01:38:15.810
They don't realize that what they should be worth.

01:38:16.430 --> 01:38:19.189
Right. I think you also saw that with Mercedes

01:38:19.189 --> 01:38:22.029
Monet in the beginning where she was doing indie

01:38:22.029 --> 01:38:25.449
scenes where she was charging $300 a photo. Yeah.

01:38:25.489 --> 01:38:30.619
Which was fucking ridiculous. So, JP, I'm going

01:38:30.619 --> 01:38:33.659
to pick on you a little bit here because I know

01:38:33.659 --> 01:38:37.439
it's getting late. We still have over half a

01:38:37.439 --> 01:38:41.039
show to do. Listen, I'm being eyeballed right

01:38:41.039 --> 01:38:44.279
now. Yeah, there's not going to be a half a show,

01:38:44.380 --> 01:38:47.560
buddy. We still haven't covered the main points

01:38:47.560 --> 01:38:52.439
of the show. You know what? We'll just stop there.

01:38:52.560 --> 01:38:55.979
We're going too long. Let's do the other pieces

01:38:55.979 --> 01:38:58.420
real quick. Just finish your point and then we'll

01:38:58.420 --> 01:39:01.619
go to the other point. No, but my only point

01:39:01.619 --> 01:39:08.319
was going to be that that is... Does that change

01:39:08.319 --> 01:39:12.239
if you don't handpick the opponents? And it's

01:39:12.239 --> 01:39:20.060
just random deathmatch wrestler B. Are we only

01:39:20.060 --> 01:39:26.310
okay with losing it depending on who it is? Just

01:39:26.310 --> 01:39:30.949
something to think about. No, with the JP scenario,

01:39:31.229 --> 01:39:33.250
I think he was just happy to be there. I don't

01:39:33.250 --> 01:39:35.729
think he'd be won or lost. It wouldn't matter

01:39:35.729 --> 01:39:40.350
who he was facing. Not just because of shit falling

01:39:40.350 --> 01:39:42.989
through and not working in my favor, but the

01:39:42.989 --> 01:39:48.090
fact that the entire six months prior to that

01:39:48.090 --> 01:39:53.909
happening, I worked guys that were from that

01:39:53.909 --> 01:39:57.979
promotion. And they went back and they were like,

01:39:58.039 --> 01:40:01.420
hey, this dude may have lost, but he fucking

01:40:01.420 --> 01:40:06.659
put it all out there. The shit he went through

01:40:06.659 --> 01:40:11.199
was wild with them. You're talking about the

01:40:11.199 --> 01:40:13.340
whole vacation land run? We worked all the hardcore

01:40:13.340 --> 01:40:18.140
guys for a while? So I worked Slave. Fucking

01:40:18.140 --> 01:40:24.859
ass into Oblivion. Bam Sullivan. Not a shopping

01:40:24.859 --> 01:40:31.239
cart. So what I'm saying, though, is you're talking

01:40:31.239 --> 01:40:36.840
about how you didn't mind losing in this situation.

01:40:37.420 --> 01:40:40.720
But what I'm saying is would you have felt the

01:40:40.720 --> 01:40:46.060
same way about that entire run? If it wasn't

01:40:46.060 --> 01:40:51.039
against Slade and so on and so forth, all these

01:40:51.039 --> 01:40:54.979
big deathmatch wrestlers, if it was against random

01:40:54.979 --> 01:40:58.539
deathmatch wrestler four... If he lost against

01:40:58.539 --> 01:41:02.439
Big Cat. If he lost against MBK. No, no, no.

01:41:02.520 --> 01:41:06.039
It doesn't have to be anybody specific. It's

01:41:06.039 --> 01:41:11.600
just somebody that isn't... That we may not like.

01:41:13.020 --> 01:41:16.619
If it made sense to the reason why I was losing,

01:41:16.739 --> 01:41:20.680
then yes, absolutely. So again, we go back to

01:41:20.680 --> 01:41:24.140
storyline. But I think everything revolves around

01:41:24.140 --> 01:41:28.100
storyline. You have to tell a story to get engaged.

01:41:28.420 --> 01:41:31.279
You can't just have a rando match. So you can't

01:41:31.279 --> 01:41:34.199
do one -off shows? I mean, you can do one -off

01:41:34.199 --> 01:41:35.760
shows, but again, it doesn't really matter who

01:41:35.760 --> 01:41:39.079
wins or loses. We're more talking about... a

01:41:39.079 --> 01:41:42.939
storyline of this is completing off. If JP did

01:41:42.939 --> 01:41:46.500
a one match or we all did a show and it was just

01:41:46.500 --> 01:41:49.039
one show, whatever, I think we'd all just walk

01:41:49.039 --> 01:41:50.579
in and be like, who are wrestling? Who's winning,

01:41:50.619 --> 01:41:56.020
losing? Oh, okay. Okay. So what I'm saying, and

01:41:56.020 --> 01:41:58.119
we're going to come, we're going to come around

01:41:58.119 --> 01:42:01.300
circle. Okay. We're going to come all the way

01:42:01.300 --> 01:42:05.020
back around to one of my original points is you

01:42:05.020 --> 01:42:08.800
can spin. It's all subjective. Because you can

01:42:08.800 --> 01:42:12.779
run that same story that JP just had, talking

01:42:12.779 --> 01:42:14.979
about losing to everybody, where he's beating

01:42:14.979 --> 01:42:17.779
everybody until the last guy, and the last guy

01:42:17.779 --> 01:42:22.520
is the big old savior for beating JP. Neither

01:42:22.520 --> 01:42:25.939
story is wrong, neither story is right. It's

01:42:25.939 --> 01:42:28.840
all subjective to the person. One person might

01:42:28.840 --> 01:42:31.439
love that one story, somebody else might hate

01:42:31.439 --> 01:42:35.050
it and prefer the other one. What I'm saying

01:42:35.050 --> 01:42:38.130
is, and when we really get down to it, is it's

01:42:38.130 --> 01:42:42.670
all subjective on how we want to spin it. It

01:42:42.670 --> 01:42:45.710
doesn't... More of how professional you are.

01:42:47.930 --> 01:42:53.810
Is it? I mean, if you're a professional and that's

01:42:53.810 --> 01:42:57.050
what the person wants, then you're like, this

01:42:57.050 --> 01:43:02.289
is fucking stupid, but okay, let's do it. So,

01:43:02.310 --> 01:43:05.789
but isn't it our jobs because we're hired we're

01:43:05.789 --> 01:43:08.989
subcontractors So we're hired. These are our

01:43:08.989 --> 01:43:11.970
job sites. We do what our bosses want us to do

01:43:11.970 --> 01:43:18.289
Right and if we don't then we don't we don't

01:43:18.289 --> 01:43:21.949
we don't get it. Yeah All right, let's finish

01:43:21.949 --> 01:43:25.569
the rest of the show in two minutes That's not

01:43:25.569 --> 01:43:27.890
happening. So you can jump off whenever you get

01:43:27.890 --> 01:43:29.930
there buddy minutes motherfucker. We still have

01:43:29.930 --> 01:43:32.539
boxes to watch We have no botched tonight. What

01:43:32.539 --> 01:43:37.119
the fuck? I'm done. I'm out. I'm out. I got it.

01:43:37.960 --> 01:43:39.659
We're not even going to get to botched. We still

01:43:39.659 --> 01:43:41.760
got two more fucking things to talk about. All

01:43:41.760 --> 01:43:43.539
right. Let's do this thing. It's going to be

01:43:43.539 --> 01:43:46.619
midnight by the time we get to botched. Oh, no,

01:43:46.680 --> 01:43:50.979
no. No, no, no. No, no, no. I can't be this loud.

01:43:52.479 --> 01:43:55.439
Exactly, that's what I'm saying. It's not happening

01:43:55.439 --> 01:43:57.960
tonight. It's already almost 11 o 'clock. We've

01:43:57.960 --> 01:44:03.520
got to blow through this. All in favor for botches.

01:44:04.539 --> 01:44:08.979
I don't have any botches. I don't have any. I

01:44:08.979 --> 01:44:12.500
just said that. Dude, I have to go through hours

01:44:12.500 --> 01:44:15.960
of fucking footage to find something new for

01:44:15.960 --> 01:44:21.350
botches, which is why it takes forever. You know

01:44:21.350 --> 01:44:25.090
what? No. Hold on. Hold on. We need to stop.

01:44:25.729 --> 01:44:30.609
Okay? I just want you to know, Big Cat, how absolutely

01:44:30.609 --> 01:44:34.029
disappointed I am in you. I don't give a fuck

01:44:34.029 --> 01:44:36.630
what you fucking think. No. No. I want you to

01:44:36.630 --> 01:44:41.949
listen. It's time you hear this. Okay? You have

01:44:41.949 --> 01:44:47.130
one responsibility, and that's to bring joy to

01:44:47.130 --> 01:44:51.100
our lives. And our podcasters' lives? And our

01:44:51.100 --> 01:44:55.659
viewers' lives? No, no, stop, stop. No, no, you

01:44:55.659 --> 01:45:01.880
listen. You listen. You listen, sir. Sir, sir,

01:45:02.539 --> 01:45:10.140
sir, I need you to listen, okay? We absolutely,

01:45:10.399 --> 01:45:15.500
we absolutely require botches and you have an

01:45:15.500 --> 01:45:19.810
entire week. to do botches and find botches,

01:45:19.949 --> 01:45:23.710
and you didn't. You didn't just let me down.

01:45:23.930 --> 01:45:28.390
You let JP down. You let Dylan Nix down. You

01:45:28.390 --> 01:45:34.930
know what? Okay, so talk to Jericho. He's still

01:45:34.930 --> 01:45:39.130
talking. He doesn't realize he's not on right

01:45:39.130 --> 01:45:42.890
now. Talk to Jericho. He was on his podcast.

01:45:44.880 --> 01:45:48.220
No, and I did know that I wasn't on the pod,

01:45:48.420 --> 01:45:51.979
okay? And I was still making my point, okay?

01:45:52.079 --> 01:45:58.220
You let everybody down, okay? You let everybody

01:45:58.220 --> 01:46:03.340
down. And the disrespect to put me in the waiting

01:46:03.340 --> 01:46:09.300
room? Sir, I don't know, girl. I don't know.

01:46:11.399 --> 01:46:15.600
Oh, no. We'll get to it. We'll pull on trusty

01:46:15.600 --> 01:46:19.020
BWJ, whatever. All right, all right. Anyway,

01:46:19.119 --> 01:46:23.640
let's get into this. Let's get into this. Chris

01:46:23.640 --> 01:46:26.479
Jericho was on Talk is Jericho. He was hosting

01:46:26.479 --> 01:46:28.899
a podcast. He had Bound for Glory. I was talking

01:46:28.899 --> 01:46:31.659
about Bound for Glory. He had both the Hardys

01:46:31.659 --> 01:46:37.180
as well as Team 3D on. And I want to say who

01:46:37.180 --> 01:46:40.729
haven't seen that. episode to watch it. It's

01:46:40.729 --> 01:46:43.590
very entertaining and amazing how they talk about

01:46:43.590 --> 01:46:45.569
it. Jeff already talked about a spot that they

01:46:45.569 --> 01:46:48.350
were going to do, and they scrapped it. A, because

01:46:48.350 --> 01:46:51.510
they were afraid of the LED wall falling, and

01:46:51.510 --> 01:46:55.890
B, he was afraid of hurting D -Von. D -Von got

01:46:55.890 --> 01:46:59.689
hurt early in that match. Anyway, he had a stinger

01:46:59.689 --> 01:47:03.470
on his tricep, on his arm. His arm the entire

01:47:03.470 --> 01:47:09.449
match was fucking dead. 30 seconds into the match.

01:47:09.930 --> 01:47:14.369
He also coming back from a stroke and his fucking

01:47:14.369 --> 01:47:17.229
back being worked on. That wasn't even the concern.

01:47:17.590 --> 01:47:22.789
When they did the 3D to Matt in the first 30

01:47:22.789 --> 01:47:26.710
seconds, he hadn't done it for so long. When

01:47:26.710 --> 01:47:29.510
he came down, he didn't land flat with Matt.

01:47:29.710 --> 01:47:33.090
He turned and came right down on his arm and

01:47:33.090 --> 01:47:35.069
he couldn't feel his arm for the entire higher

01:47:35.069 --> 01:47:37.210
match. He thought he tore his arm. That's crazy.

01:47:38.210 --> 01:47:41.050
I get it. If you land just wrong doing the cutter,

01:47:41.229 --> 01:47:43.949
all of a sudden you're like, oh, that doesn't

01:47:43.949 --> 01:47:47.369
feel right anymore. I've landed on my hip a couple

01:47:47.369 --> 01:47:52.109
times with cutters. Jesus Christ. We've all fucked

01:47:52.109 --> 01:47:55.260
up something and it fucking sucks. I fuck up

01:47:55.260 --> 01:47:57.039
a hip toss from time to time and freaking throw

01:47:57.039 --> 01:47:59.659
up my back. I didn't change the subject completely

01:47:59.659 --> 01:48:02.159
at all, but I had just come across some of the

01:48:02.159 --> 01:48:05.960
photos from the GCW show at Yarmouth. I didn't

01:48:05.960 --> 01:48:09.979
realize that Shotzi Blackheart had a tattoo of

01:48:09.979 --> 01:48:14.819
Danhausen on her foot. That's hilarious. That's

01:48:14.819 --> 01:48:18.640
hilarious. They acknowledge this before the fucking

01:48:18.640 --> 01:48:20.659
mat. I'm just like, I was scrolling and I saw

01:48:20.659 --> 01:48:24.899
the tattoo and I go, how the fuck? I'm glad you're

01:48:24.899 --> 01:48:27.060
paying attention to the podcast. Anyways, so

01:48:27.060 --> 01:48:33.100
this was actually taken off the podcast because,

01:48:33.180 --> 01:48:35.859
well, on YouTube, I don't know about the live.

01:48:36.819 --> 01:48:39.180
A, because you couldn't find this clip at all.

01:48:39.279 --> 01:48:42.560
And B, if you actually go into their YouTube,

01:48:42.659 --> 01:48:45.539
for those who don't know, you can do things in

01:48:45.539 --> 01:48:48.039
chapters, which makes it easier for the audience.

01:48:48.079 --> 01:48:49.560
If you're looking for something, you can just

01:48:49.560 --> 01:48:51.920
scroll through. And the chapters were off by

01:48:51.920 --> 01:48:56.739
like a minute or two, whatever. So Chris Jericho,

01:48:56.779 --> 01:48:59.100
before they even started the conversation, he

01:48:59.100 --> 01:49:03.340
made this comment about AEW, the fact that he,

01:49:03.399 --> 01:49:09.000
how he felt how TNA was doing compared to what

01:49:09.000 --> 01:49:12.020
AEW was doing. He was saying, cause he claimed

01:49:12.020 --> 01:49:14.930
that, and it looked. 100 % looked like it was

01:49:14.930 --> 01:49:17.390
like a WrestleMania. That TNA show was like the

01:49:17.390 --> 01:49:19.909
biggest. And we all were actually technically

01:49:19.909 --> 01:49:22.590
supposed to be there. We were all talking about

01:49:22.590 --> 01:49:26.050
it. But it came up to like $1 ,000 for all of

01:49:26.050 --> 01:49:29.550
us, like $200 a ticket for us just to be there.

01:49:29.630 --> 01:49:30.949
And that wasn't including if we wanted to bring

01:49:30.949 --> 01:49:33.770
our wives or anybody else with us. Oh, I wouldn't

01:49:33.770 --> 01:49:35.270
be going by myself. I don't know what you're

01:49:35.270 --> 01:49:36.949
thinking. Yeah, so it would have been even more

01:49:36.949 --> 01:49:41.689
than that. So that's why we didn't go. But Chris

01:49:41.689 --> 01:49:46.880
Jericho makes the comment about, AEW side. Crowd

01:49:46.880 --> 01:49:51.060
looked huge. It looked huge. It was like a WWE

01:49:51.060 --> 01:49:55.319
level crowd. The place was packed. I was watching

01:49:55.319 --> 01:49:58.699
this and not saying anything out of school here,

01:49:58.779 --> 01:50:01.000
but comparing it to watching Dynamite when they

01:50:01.000 --> 01:50:03.659
were at the ECW arena, which looked like a Tony

01:50:03.659 --> 01:50:06.760
Candelo taping. Sorry, it did. DNA looked like

01:50:06.760 --> 01:50:11.640
the second biggest company in the world. And

01:50:11.640 --> 01:50:14.319
that was amazing. And the presentation was amazing.

01:50:14.680 --> 01:50:16.720
I mean, it looked like a WrestleMania. It really

01:50:16.720 --> 01:50:20.439
did. So that's where the clip everybody was pulling

01:50:20.439 --> 01:50:25.340
out, what we've all been saying, that AEW's size,

01:50:25.699 --> 01:50:28.899
it seems like their size is getting smaller and

01:50:28.899 --> 01:50:31.460
smaller. So people took that in context. It's

01:50:31.460 --> 01:50:35.520
like, oh, this 100 % means that he's done with

01:50:35.520 --> 01:50:39.579
AEW. JP brought it up a few weeks ago, and I'll

01:50:39.579 --> 01:50:43.590
bring it up again. He does a cruise. AEW is always

01:50:43.590 --> 01:50:47.130
fucking listed to be on the cruise. This year,

01:50:47.149 --> 01:50:51.489
they were not. Not a single AEW person listed

01:50:51.489 --> 01:50:54.989
on next year's cruise. It's pretty much all but

01:50:54.989 --> 01:50:57.250
confirmed he's going back to the WWE to finish

01:50:57.250 --> 01:51:01.130
his career. Matter of when. That was his plan

01:51:01.130 --> 01:51:07.229
the entire time. I don't think... I think it'll

01:51:07.229 --> 01:51:09.609
be Rumble. I don't know when his contract ends,

01:51:09.649 --> 01:51:11.770
whatever. I don't know if Zack Ryder showed up

01:51:11.770 --> 01:51:13.430
at SmackDown tonight. We were talking about that

01:51:13.430 --> 01:51:17.010
earlier. I was breaking news while it was happening.

01:51:17.430 --> 01:51:19.369
But no, seriously, I thought he signed like a

01:51:19.369 --> 01:51:22.350
10 -year contract with AEW. Did he not? Who the

01:51:22.350 --> 01:51:24.489
fuck is going to sign a 10 -year contract with

01:51:24.489 --> 01:51:26.810
AEW? Jericho, because he signed a 10 -year contract

01:51:26.810 --> 01:51:32.989
for a million. Nobody's going to sign. For one

01:51:32.989 --> 01:51:37.520
million dollars? 10 -year contract for a million

01:51:37.520 --> 01:51:40.960
dollars or a million dollars a year. That's a

01:51:40.960 --> 01:51:45.239
hundred. My mouth is terribly off. It's less

01:51:45.239 --> 01:51:49.739
than a hundred grand a year. Fuck that. I am

01:51:49.739 --> 01:51:53.039
going to get out of here because I'm going to

01:51:53.039 --> 01:51:57.539
get yelled at and I don't want to. Looks like

01:51:57.539 --> 01:52:00.420
somebody else is putting the creator in their

01:52:00.420 --> 01:52:06.460
place. No, no. It's called keeping And I love

01:52:06.460 --> 01:52:10.199
her. So Jericho's contract apparently is... Well,

01:52:11.779 --> 01:52:14.359
there you go. Well, do your fucking work before

01:52:14.359 --> 01:52:16.260
you get out of here. Oh, I don't have... Just

01:52:16.260 --> 01:52:18.600
send me Matthew's Wrestling on platforms and

01:52:18.600 --> 01:52:21.140
JP, you might want to think about doing the goddamn

01:52:21.140 --> 01:52:24.239
same because if she's giving you looks, you're

01:52:24.239 --> 01:52:26.020
going to get your ass beat if you don't listen.

01:52:27.220 --> 01:52:32.619
She's out. She's asleep. Alright. Well, it was

01:52:32.619 --> 01:52:34.880
a pleasure being back. I will be back more often.

01:52:35.739 --> 01:52:39.060
Everyone needs to witness Dylan Nicks beating

01:52:39.060 --> 01:52:41.199
the fuck out of Samuel Matthews and Lee Miller

01:52:41.199 --> 01:52:45.560
on December 6th. That's not going to happen.

01:52:45.560 --> 01:52:47.659
I'd say we make it a title match, but you don't

01:52:47.659 --> 01:52:49.800
have the titles. Yeah, they're two pussies to

01:52:49.800 --> 01:52:56.590
fucking want to do that. Which tag title would

01:52:56.590 --> 01:52:59.869
you like me to defend against you? Oh, wait,

01:52:59.909 --> 01:53:01.890
wait, wait, wait, wait. By the time we walk into

01:53:01.890 --> 01:53:03.670
December 6th, I should have three single titles.

01:53:03.670 --> 01:53:05.829
It can't be the one that Drake Lovecraft is holding

01:53:05.829 --> 01:53:09.050
for me. It's called... They're free bird ruling

01:53:09.050 --> 01:53:11.510
that shit. They don't even know who the free

01:53:11.510 --> 01:53:13.229
birds are, and they're going to free bird rule

01:53:13.229 --> 01:53:16.409
that shit. What are you talking about? Who are

01:53:16.409 --> 01:53:19.189
the free birds? If we win the titles... Michael

01:53:19.189 --> 01:53:23.300
Hayes? I know him. That's the only one that mattered.

01:53:23.319 --> 01:53:31.020
That's the only one that did anything. Come on,

01:53:31.039 --> 01:53:35.460
man. Ronnie Garvin. There we go. I was like,

01:53:35.500 --> 01:53:39.460
Jesus Christ, another third one. And the only

01:53:39.460 --> 01:53:43.159
one that's still relevant and anybody talks about?

01:53:45.100 --> 01:53:47.000
Anyway, it's December 6th. You can see them in

01:53:47.000 --> 01:53:50.500
Orono. JP and Dylan Mix versus... It's not Orono.

01:53:50.619 --> 01:53:53.119
It's Indian Island. I'm going to spank them.

01:53:53.500 --> 01:53:55.659
I'm going to spank them like... It's down the

01:53:55.659 --> 01:53:58.260
road. I might have to just stop in to make sure...

01:53:58.260 --> 01:54:01.880
Oh, you're going to show up this time? JP, they

01:54:01.880 --> 01:54:04.300
don't have the titles. The problem has the titles.

01:54:05.880 --> 01:54:08.479
You're going to show up this time? You're going

01:54:08.479 --> 01:54:11.680
to show up this time? All right. I'm getting

01:54:11.680 --> 01:54:13.319
out of here before... Get out of here before...

01:54:13.319 --> 01:54:17.460
All right. Bye, guys. Later. Bye. Remind me to

01:54:17.460 --> 01:54:22.920
fire him. He's got a contract in his ass. That's

01:54:22.920 --> 01:54:31.079
irrelevant. Jesus Christ. I see Chris Jericho

01:54:31.079 --> 01:54:35.279
coming back to WWE. Maybe we'll see him. The

01:54:35.279 --> 01:54:39.440
last opponent for John Cena will be... Jericho.

01:54:39.440 --> 01:54:41.640
I still say it should be Edge. Honestly, Edge

01:54:41.640 --> 01:54:44.500
would make the most sense. But here's the thing.

01:54:44.500 --> 01:54:45.840
This is the other point that I wanted to get

01:54:45.840 --> 01:54:52.539
into. We just saw that John Cena beat Dominic

01:54:52.539 --> 01:54:56.199
Mysterio. Dominic Mysterio. on Monday Night Raw

01:54:56.199 --> 01:54:58.579
for the title, which everybody claimed that that

01:54:58.579 --> 01:55:00.579
might have been what that match was going to

01:55:00.579 --> 01:55:03.619
be for SummerSlam. Could we see Edge versus John

01:55:03.619 --> 01:55:06.220
Cena at SummerSlam? That would be cool. I think,

01:55:06.220 --> 01:55:08.460
too, one of the reasons they wanted to have Dom

01:55:08.460 --> 01:55:11.720
lose the IC title is because he also has a AAA

01:55:11.720 --> 01:55:14.079
heavyweight title right now, and they wanted

01:55:14.079 --> 01:55:16.399
to make the AAA title look a little more important

01:55:16.399 --> 01:55:18.199
than the mid -card title. Did you make that point

01:55:18.199 --> 01:55:20.460
last time, or did JP make that point last time?

01:55:20.560 --> 01:55:25.250
JP made it. I don't remember. Probably. I don't

01:55:25.250 --> 01:55:29.750
fucking remember. That one right there. I do

01:55:29.750 --> 01:55:31.149
have a clip from that match, so this was pretty

01:55:31.149 --> 01:55:33.529
fucking funny. Here's where we get canceled.

01:55:34.149 --> 01:55:39.369
Nope, this is the champion. So, Dirty Dom doing

01:55:39.369 --> 01:55:41.250
his thing. He goes and rolls out and has a chair.

01:55:43.810 --> 01:55:46.470
Love how just his chair is going to go over there.

01:55:47.189 --> 01:55:49.170
I don't understand how the ref doesn't understand

01:55:49.170 --> 01:55:51.029
this bullshit he's going to do at this point.

01:56:02.300 --> 01:56:05.079
I Thoughts hilarious, but they still think the

01:56:05.079 --> 01:56:07.739
best spot is AJ Styles when he caught the chair

01:56:07.739 --> 01:56:11.039
He laid down he put the chair over his head For

01:56:11.039 --> 01:56:15.399
some strange reason I want to do that spot with

01:56:15.399 --> 01:56:17.300
blade bandit I don't know why but I'm feeling

01:56:17.300 --> 01:56:19.920
blade bandit for that spot Right? That would

01:56:19.920 --> 01:56:22.479
actually be funny. Especially like Geno's or

01:56:22.479 --> 01:56:24.279
something. I don't know. That would be funny

01:56:24.279 --> 01:56:31.300
as hell. Right, exactly. But yeah, just I don't

01:56:31.300 --> 01:56:33.199
know who his last opponent's going to be. That's

01:56:33.199 --> 01:56:38.319
the thing. I think they'll probably do John Cena

01:56:38.319 --> 01:56:41.720
versus Edge if Edge does come back for SummerSlam.

01:56:42.079 --> 01:56:45.500
The way they're thinking is We already have Matt

01:56:45.500 --> 01:56:47.539
Cardona as a mystery opponent. There's still

01:56:47.539 --> 01:56:49.579
one other mystery opponent for Monday Night Raw.

01:56:49.859 --> 01:56:52.819
Joe Hendry. 100 % it's going to be Joe Hendry.

01:56:52.939 --> 01:56:58.340
So at that point, they still have one more announcement

01:56:58.340 --> 01:57:01.359
of four other people, I believe it is. Because

01:57:01.359 --> 01:57:04.319
it was, they already announced. I think you guys

01:57:04.319 --> 01:57:07.579
see Dolph Ziggler as one of them for SmackDown.

01:57:07.739 --> 01:57:11.020
So they did announcements after the first set

01:57:11.020 --> 01:57:16.180
of four. for the next four people for next monday

01:57:16.180 --> 01:57:20.699
so i believe and then they just announced another

01:57:20.699 --> 01:57:25.260
four so that's four eight twelve so on monday

01:57:25.260 --> 01:57:29.119
after the next two matches advance they have

01:57:29.119 --> 01:57:32.279
four other people that still have not been announced

01:57:32.279 --> 01:57:39.430
yet for this tournament that makes 16. I think

01:57:39.430 --> 01:57:41.329
Dolph Ziggler is going to be one of them. Who

01:57:41.329 --> 01:57:44.050
is going to be? I couldn't because three have

01:57:44.050 --> 01:57:45.409
to be people that are on the current roster.

01:57:45.609 --> 01:57:49.609
And right now they just confirmed Carmelo Hayes,

01:57:49.609 --> 01:57:52.649
Bronson Reed. You forgot one. You forgot one,

01:57:52.729 --> 01:57:56.050
though. You forgot one. They also claimed NXT

01:57:56.050 --> 01:57:59.369
as well. So we can see an NXT star. People that

01:57:59.369 --> 01:58:01.470
don't work here. They haven't put anyone on the

01:58:01.470 --> 01:58:03.750
show that has not worked here. Matt Cardona.

01:58:05.000 --> 01:58:07.579
Matt Cardona's on TNA. He's on the TNA payroll.

01:58:07.760 --> 01:58:14.699
I know it's impossible, but I would kill to hear,

01:58:14.800 --> 01:58:19.840
sorry about your damn luck. I want to be honest

01:58:19.840 --> 01:58:24.779
with you. I wouldn't give a fuck. I wouldn't.

01:58:24.779 --> 01:58:29.159
I was a Bobby Roode guy over fucking Storm. I

01:58:29.159 --> 01:58:32.739
was no Storm over Roode. Fuck, dude. Dude, America's

01:58:32.739 --> 01:58:34.979
Most Wanted was way better than Beer Money, in

01:58:34.979 --> 01:58:38.420
my opinion. I don't know. Beer Money was great,

01:58:38.479 --> 01:58:42.800
though. I don't know. If we got an OG TNA guy,

01:58:43.020 --> 01:58:47.100
you know what I mean? They have half the OG.

01:58:48.739 --> 01:58:51.560
Yeah, if you want the best OG TNA guy, you gotta

01:58:51.560 --> 01:58:54.159
get Samoa Joe, and he's signed in AEW right now.

01:58:54.819 --> 01:58:58.739
So we have Finn Balor and Penta, and then it's

01:58:58.739 --> 01:59:02.319
Carmella Hayes and Bronson. as the next four.

01:59:02.819 --> 01:59:04.819
Of course, we know that Bronson's going to win

01:59:04.819 --> 01:59:06.659
that, which sucks because Kamau Hayes should

01:59:06.659 --> 01:59:09.979
win. Bronson's going to win and then between

01:59:09.979 --> 01:59:13.779
Finn Balor and Penta, I feel like Penta's going

01:59:13.779 --> 01:59:19.300
to go over. I don't know. I wanted Balor so bad

01:59:19.300 --> 01:59:23.380
to come out when Seth Rollins gave up the title.

01:59:23.619 --> 01:59:26.260
I wanted Balor to come out and just look at Rollins

01:59:26.260 --> 01:59:29.399
and be like, hey, asshole, now you see how it

01:59:29.399 --> 01:59:34.130
fucking feels. Right, exactly. Honestly, it makes

01:59:34.130 --> 01:59:36.149
me sad. I don't think Finn Balor's been used

01:59:36.149 --> 01:59:42.390
right since he's come back from NXT. Sorry, I've

01:59:42.390 --> 01:59:45.689
got to move the JP O 'Reilly piece of my house.

01:59:46.850 --> 01:59:49.890
Don't ask me whether it's cheese grater. I was

01:59:49.890 --> 01:59:52.289
just going to say, is that actually from JP O

01:59:52.289 --> 01:59:54.710
'Reilly? No, but there's a reason I bought this

01:59:54.710 --> 01:59:58.310
belt, this one specifically, is because I'm a

01:59:58.310 --> 02:00:01.489
huge Finn Balor fan. Yeah, it's the original

02:00:01.489 --> 02:00:05.789
Universal when it was red. I do have the Balor

02:00:05.789 --> 02:00:06.989
plates for it. I just don't know where they are

02:00:06.989 --> 02:00:08.449
at the moment. They're packed in the other room

02:00:08.449 --> 02:00:10.210
somewhere still. But the reason I bought this

02:00:10.210 --> 02:00:11.869
one is because I'm a huge Balor fan. And I was

02:00:11.869 --> 02:00:13.630
really excited when he won the damn freaking

02:00:13.630 --> 02:00:15.970
title. I was really sad when they had to give

02:00:15.970 --> 02:00:17.850
it up after a day. But I mean, you blow your

02:00:17.850 --> 02:00:19.210
shoulder out. Yeah, I get it. You got to give

02:00:19.210 --> 02:00:22.210
it up. But my problem with it is he's never gotten

02:00:22.210 --> 02:00:25.180
a rematch for the belt. Not a legit one. What,

02:00:25.260 --> 02:00:27.920
Brock Lesnar? Yeah, of course Balor's going to

02:00:27.920 --> 02:00:31.520
lose to that. The fucking Bork Lesnar, the blonde

02:00:31.520 --> 02:00:37.359
gorilla. Bork Laser. Bork Laser. Me Bork. Suplex.

02:00:38.659 --> 02:00:44.260
That's coming from me. Seriously, it's just like...

02:00:44.260 --> 02:00:49.000
I'd love for them to let Finn be the original

02:00:49.000 --> 02:00:53.720
Finn that was like the prince again. When he

02:00:53.720 --> 02:00:55.800
went back to NXT and became the prince and came

02:00:55.800 --> 02:00:57.960
back up, they should have let him have a run

02:00:57.960 --> 02:00:59.260
with that. Then they should have let him have

02:00:59.260 --> 02:01:01.539
a run with that and have the demon show up once.

02:01:02.079 --> 02:01:04.279
And the demon destroy whoever he was against

02:01:04.279 --> 02:01:09.460
and win the damn heavyweight title again. So,

02:01:09.460 --> 02:01:15.079
yeah. I know, right? Exactly, exactly. Finn Balor

02:01:15.079 --> 02:01:17.319
retweeted me once and I will always remember

02:01:17.319 --> 02:01:20.300
that. It was almost as cool as Demotion Smash

02:01:20.300 --> 02:01:24.489
retweeted me. Actually, you're responding to

02:01:24.489 --> 02:01:30.489
my tweet. Totally off topic. I've seen... I don't

02:01:30.489 --> 02:01:33.970
know if TNA Turning Point was tonight or not,

02:01:34.090 --> 02:01:36.989
but I'm seeing random fucking reports about it.

02:01:38.170 --> 02:01:41.630
I don't know. Are you seeing that Dirty Dom is

02:01:41.630 --> 02:01:50.340
retiring? No. TNA Turning Point... stats of the

02:01:50.340 --> 02:01:52.340
show, and I'm like, when the fuck did Turning

02:01:52.340 --> 02:01:56.899
Point become a fucking... Why am I seeing results

02:01:56.899 --> 02:02:00.640
right now at the current moment? Is it live on

02:02:00.640 --> 02:02:03.680
TV right now or some shit? No, they wouldn't

02:02:03.680 --> 02:02:06.020
put Turning Point up against SmackDown. I have

02:02:06.020 --> 02:02:09.979
no clue. People were posting about it after SmackDown

02:02:09.979 --> 02:02:15.779
ended. I'm thinking because what's going around

02:02:15.779 --> 02:02:18.720
right now is because Dango has announced that

02:02:18.720 --> 02:02:21.699
he's retiring. So, for example, at Turning Point,

02:02:21.899 --> 02:02:26.460
Charlie, again, this is Turning Point TNA. Charlie

02:02:26.460 --> 02:02:31.680
Dempsey, Brooks Jensen, Lexus King, Channing

02:02:31.680 --> 02:02:35.180
Lorenzo, Robert Stone, and the High Rise attacked

02:02:35.180 --> 02:02:39.439
Santino Morella, Frankie Kazanian, Mike Santana,

02:02:39.640 --> 02:02:42.079
Nick Nemeth, Steve Macklin, and Ryan Nemeth.

02:02:43.020 --> 02:02:46.939
So it was tonight actually turning point 2025

02:02:46.939 --> 02:02:48.979
was a professional wrestling event produced by

02:02:48.979 --> 02:02:52.479
TNA It took place on November 14th at Full Sail

02:02:52.479 --> 02:02:56.000
University. Oh, so it's alive at 11 o 'clock

02:02:56.000 --> 02:03:00.140
at night. What the fuck? Yep At turning point

02:03:00.140 --> 02:03:04.560
doesn't Xavier return TNA war games on fucking

02:03:04.560 --> 02:03:09.760
I think so. Oh, maybe yeah But this is currently

02:03:09.760 --> 02:03:12.039
happening right now. Why the fuck would they

02:03:12.039 --> 02:03:15.659
thought, hey, let's do a Friday night 11 p .m.

02:03:15.680 --> 02:03:21.840
in pay -per -view? It's probably because they

02:03:21.840 --> 02:03:25.239
didn't want to run against WWE. Holy shit. Why

02:03:25.239 --> 02:03:27.479
don't you do it on fucking Saturday or Sunday?

02:03:27.600 --> 02:03:30.319
There's no pay -per -view. They get the full

02:03:30.319 --> 02:03:33.420
rascals back together. Yeah, I saw the rascals.

02:03:33.560 --> 02:03:37.819
Why are we doing this at 11 o 'clock at night?

02:03:38.510 --> 02:03:42.989
I don't know. But did you see that Dango is retiring?

02:03:43.750 --> 02:03:46.329
Dango is retiring, yep. And he was supposed to

02:03:46.329 --> 02:03:53.289
be on the most recent... EWA. EWA, yep. That's

02:03:53.289 --> 02:03:57.810
right. He's stepping back for his family, it

02:03:57.810 --> 02:03:59.689
looks like. I got his whole speech here, but

02:03:59.689 --> 02:04:02.970
we don't have to listen to it. Well, yeah, we

02:04:02.970 --> 02:04:04.609
probably should listen to it because I advertised

02:04:04.609 --> 02:04:09.250
it for tonight's show. he came in and he uh you

02:04:09.250 --> 02:04:11.569
know addressed a crowd that he you know he just

02:04:11.569 --> 02:04:14.489
recently got married and he's talking to his

02:04:14.489 --> 02:04:17.390
wife and he's i went to college with his wife

02:04:17.390 --> 02:04:22.850
by the way fun little fact yeah totally off topic

02:04:22.850 --> 02:04:25.770
completely um my mom went to high school with

02:04:25.770 --> 02:04:28.729
adam sandler i know that has nothing to do with

02:04:28.729 --> 02:04:31.550
what we're talking about if we want to talk immediately

02:04:31.550 --> 02:04:34.310
thought about it. I don't know if I brought this

02:04:34.310 --> 02:04:36.029
up before, but if we're going to be talking about

02:04:36.029 --> 02:04:37.989
this shit, let me just say this then. I went

02:04:37.989 --> 02:04:40.489
to high school in Massachusetts for a couple

02:04:40.489 --> 02:04:43.189
years, and the teacher that I had, even though

02:04:43.189 --> 02:04:46.130
she was a ginormous senior next Tuesday, her

02:04:46.130 --> 02:04:48.710
daughter came in from time to time, and she was

02:04:48.710 --> 02:04:51.430
very nice. Her daughter is best friends with

02:04:51.430 --> 02:04:59.779
John Cena. She invited him to her wedding. And

02:04:59.779 --> 02:05:04.300
he showed up after a show in a top tux and jorts.

02:05:06.260 --> 02:05:10.260
That's awesome. Look at this motherfucking sellout.

02:05:11.420 --> 02:05:16.520
I kind of want to go buy that. Motherfucker posted

02:05:16.520 --> 02:05:19.539
it and was like woo woo woo and it says broski

02:05:19.539 --> 02:05:22.399
of the week. You know it. I know it. And there's

02:05:22.399 --> 02:05:25.539
a broski in the front. Who do you think our bud,

02:05:25.720 --> 02:05:28.500
Hooligan Bam, probably bought a t -shirt tonight.

02:05:29.380 --> 02:05:32.739
I assume so, yeah. 100%. And by the way, the

02:05:32.739 --> 02:05:34.500
shit that he's doing is fucking awesome. It's

02:05:34.500 --> 02:05:36.819
the shit that I wanted us all to do. I've been

02:05:36.819 --> 02:05:40.539
on his thing. I know. That's what I wanted all

02:05:40.539 --> 02:05:42.779
of us to do at those shows, but we couldn't get

02:05:42.779 --> 02:05:46.479
it going. But not the same style, but going in

02:05:46.479 --> 02:05:47.979
and asking fans who they wanted or whatever.

02:05:48.779 --> 02:05:51.340
But I really like the shit that he's doing. Anyways,

02:05:51.500 --> 02:05:57.420
check him out. He's on Instagram and TikTok.

02:05:58.100 --> 02:06:00.680
This is Daniel's retirement speech. I got married

02:06:00.680 --> 02:06:11.140
two months ago. These animals were here. They

02:06:11.140 --> 02:06:13.579
were there. Moose was making a fool of himself

02:06:13.579 --> 02:06:17.199
on the dance floor. Tommy Dreamer wore a Ribeiro

02:06:17.199 --> 02:06:27.750
jacket to my wedding. So my wife slash handler

02:06:27.750 --> 02:06:29.630
and I have been talking a lot lately over the

02:06:29.630 --> 02:06:32.390
last couple weeks. What the fuck does that mean?

02:06:33.069 --> 02:06:36.510
It's the same thing we say about our roles. We've

02:06:36.510 --> 02:06:41.829
decided that after Genesis in January that I'm

02:06:41.829 --> 02:06:49.250
going to be retiring from in -ring action. I

02:06:49.250 --> 02:06:51.149
didn't want to just throw this at you guys out

02:06:51.149 --> 02:06:53.130
here, but I want to do it here in Orlando in

02:06:53.130 --> 02:06:55.050
this arena at Full Sail because this place means

02:06:55.050 --> 02:06:59.770
the freaking world to me. Yeah, so basically

02:06:59.770 --> 02:07:02.270
he then talks about having a funny replacement

02:07:02.270 --> 02:07:05.489
to be in their group. And I don't know if the

02:07:05.489 --> 02:07:08.050
guys in the group knew because everyone was like,

02:07:08.149 --> 02:07:12.170
what the fuck? Like their reaction to it. So,

02:07:12.210 --> 02:07:22.539
yeah. Yeah, that's what it is, unfortunately,

02:07:22.779 --> 02:07:26.640
but it's kind of wild. I didn't think that explains

02:07:26.640 --> 02:07:33.340
why TNA pulled him from the EWA show. Yep. That'll

02:07:33.340 --> 02:07:38.020
do it. My fucking eyeballs right now. I got to

02:07:38.020 --> 02:07:41.159
piss so bad. That's fine. We're going to end

02:07:41.159 --> 02:07:42.680
it here unless you guys want to go into botches.

02:07:43.140 --> 02:07:47.449
No. You guys gave me such a fucking bad hard

02:07:47.449 --> 02:07:54.989
time about botches. I got botches. I got botches.

02:07:55.770 --> 02:07:59.010
As you're typing into YouTube right now. You're

02:07:59.010 --> 02:08:03.649
fucking right I am. I'm going to the old and

02:08:03.649 --> 02:08:07.270
trusty guy that I know. He has fucking botches

02:08:07.270 --> 02:08:13.630
ready to go. Old reliable. Wave goodbye to the

02:08:13.630 --> 02:08:17.840

you for listening to us ramble. Yeah, us ramble.

02:08:24.960 --> 02:08:26.960
It got sidetracked really bad because, you know,

02:08:27.060 --> 02:08:29.079
Samuel Matthews had to fucking ruin everything.

02:08:30.180 --> 02:08:34.060

02:08:38.880 --> 02:08:41.020
shit out, because you guys will have absolutely

02:08:41.020 --> 02:08:43.329
no idea what's going on. and it would make no

02:08:43.329 --> 02:08:48.710
fucking sense for the audio listeners. The only

02:08:48.710 --> 02:08:50.170
way you can catch the full show is you watch

goodbye to the audio listeners there, GP. He's

02:09:06.359 --> 02:09:07.680
not paying attention. He's not paying attention.

I will probably be in attendance for there. I

02:11:10.300 --> 02:11:11.880
also just looked at my calendar and realized

02:11:11.880 --> 02:11:14.279
I have three things fucking happening that Friday,

02:11:14.380 --> 02:11:16.500
so I don't know where the fuck I'm going to be

02:11:16.500 --> 02:11:20.960
by the time that show starts. In between, I have

02:11:20.960 --> 02:11:24.159
a fucking interview. I have to pick up my child.

02:11:26.659 --> 02:11:28.560
I don't know where the fuck I'm going to be.

02:11:46.300 --> 02:11:53.100
family -friendly pie -eating contest to determine

02:11:53.100 --> 02:11:59.630
the number one contendership. Didn't even mention

02:11:59.630 --> 02:12:05.909
that. The fact that... Okay, listen. I'm a big

02:12:05.909 --> 02:12:08.930
boy. I can throw down some fucking pie. I promise

02:12:08.930 --> 02:12:11.449
you that this is going to be a challenge for

02:12:11.449 --> 02:12:16.750
you. I promise you. But I don't even know what's...

02:12:16.750 --> 02:12:22.119
I don't know what's going to happen. I just work

02:12:22.119 --> 02:12:24.939
here. This is the pure definition of I just work

02:12:24.939 --> 02:12:27.899
here. Will it be a match? Who knows? Will we

02:12:27.899 --> 02:12:30.279
actually stuff our faces with pie in that attempt

02:12:30.279 --> 02:12:33.000
to wrestle before one of us? I feel like what's

02:12:33.000 --> 02:12:35.739
going to happen is the first one to puke loses.

02:12:35.939 --> 02:12:37.220
This is what's going to happen because we're

02:12:37.220 --> 02:12:40.220
going to stuff. I were trying to wrestle and

02:12:40.220 --> 02:12:41.680
you're going to give me a fucking destroyer.

02:12:41.699 --> 02:12:46.520
